What's the take-home on a £30,000 salary?

With 5% pension and no student loan: Income Tax ≈ £3,486, NICs ≈ £1,392, pension ≈ £1,500. Take-home approximately £23,622/year or £1,968/month.

How does salary sacrifice affect take-home?

Salary sacrifice for pension or benefits reduces gross salary before tax and NICs — saving both Income Tax and National Insurance on the sacrificed amount.

Does my employer pension contribution count?

It doesn't affect take-home pay (it's paid on top) but is important for assessing total remuneration package value.
