Big 4 M&A Salary London

I'm talking about the M&A groups at the Big 4 who do lead advisory, not the other TAS. Goal is to compare to Germany where you start with €48k (= £40k) base and after 5-7 years (as Manager) reach €100k.

What's the salary and salary progression like in the UK? The data in the WSO database is ambiguous and you can't find M&A specific data on Glassdoor.
