Asset Management / PWM entry level salaries in the UK

Hey buddies, long time no see. I was wondering what salary I could expect as an entry level position in an asset management/pwm firm based in London. I have 2 previous experiences (internships in consulting & IB) and I don't know what could be my first salary expectations.

Thank you for your help.

    My experience from £250B + active managers: £32-42.5k base, ~3k signing/relocation, £0-10k bonus - in London. Should note that, whilst lower than IB/HF - hours as a grad/analyst are absolutely dreamy. And pay ramps relatively quickly if you're good!
