I have a salary schedule table. It is 10 columns across and 35 rows down.
On another worksheet I have three columns - Staff member, Step (=row), Lane
(=column).

I would like my staff worksheet to look up the salary for each staff member
- referencing the salary table and inserting the salary that intersects with
the row-column (step lane) of that particular staff member.

What function / formula should I be using?

Use index,

forexample assume the table is Sheet2 and A1:J35

=INDEX('Sheet2'!$A$1:$J$35,Step,Lane)

and copy down

So if John has 2 rows and 3 columns it will return Sheet2!C2

so lane 1 is column A (in this example, actually meaning the first column in
case your table doesn't start in A)
