Sally Nugent – £228K

Sally Nugent may have had her eyes set on a job in media when she applied to college. After all, shortly after her BA in Communication Arts and French, she landed a job with the BBC. And her journalistic career has been nothing short of a success story since her first role at BBC Radio Merseyside.

After that, she moved on to handling BBC’s sports-related shows. Then, in 2021, she replaced Louise Minchin as a presenter on “BBC Breakfast.” Considering her versatility and long-running commitment to the BBC, it’s no surprise that she earns £228K yearly.
