ABOUT NOT JUST SALARY

A job decision is rarely just about the salary.

The number on the offer matters. But so do the hours, flexibility, progression, stability, benefits and the impact a move could have on the rest of your life.

Not Just Salary was built to help you see all of it together.

The offer tells you what they're offering.
It doesn't tell you whether it's right for you.

Two people can receive exactly the same job offer and make completely different decisions.

One might care most about earning more. Another might need flexibility around family. Someone else might be prioritising career progression, stability or getting their evenings back.

That's why NJS doesn't treat every job move the same.

The same job offer can lead to different considerations and decisions when people have different priorities.

OUR APPROACH

Built around your decision, not someone else's.

What matters to you matters.

Your priorities shape the analysis. NJS isn't built around one universal definition of a "good" job offer.

Missing information isn't bad information.

If something isn't known, NJS doesn't quietly treat it as a negative. It can instead become something worth confirming.

The trade-offs matter too.

More money can come with longer hours. More flexibility can come with less certainty. NJS is designed to make those trade-offs easier to see.

You make the decision.

NJS helps organise the evidence, surface the trade-offs and identify the questions worth asking. It doesn't decide whether you should take the job.

INDEPENDENT BY DESIGN

Built to help you think, not tell you what to do.

We're not the employer, recruiter or hiring manager. NJS has no stake in whether you accept, reject or negotiate the offer.

WHAT NJS LOOKS AT

Because the whole opportunity matters.

  • Money
  • Career
  • Work-life balance
  • Flexibility
  • Certainty
  • Household
  • Location & lifestyle
  • Gut feeling

HOW IT WORKS

Useful support, with clear boundaries.

AI helps us read your offer. It doesn't make the decision for you.

AI can help extract details from an uploaded offer. The Decision Engine uses structured NJS decision logic to organise what you provide.

Your decision is personal.
Your data should be too.

Uploading an offer is optional, and you can delete saved Decision Reviews or your account and associated customer data.

Decision support, not professional advice.

NJS is a decision-support tool. It isn't a recruiter, financial adviser, tax adviser or lawyer.
