Corporate Banking Analyst Salary Outside of London- What Should I Expect?

I am returning from working as a graduate abroad and expecting an offer in the UK for the role of an Analyst supporting a Corporate Banker in a Tier 2 bank, the role is based in the Midlands.

What salary can I expect? I had expected a minimum of around 30K as I have just over one years worth of experience, yet friends have said that I should be aiming for at least 40K as graduates for the bank in question are paid 38K starting. Yet I'm not sure if figures are this high outside of London.

I do not want to be low balled when it comes to salary discussions and have very little experience in UK Banking salaries. If anyone has any experience or advice on what salary I should expect/aim for it would be really appreciated!
