You shouldn't have a problem reaching a similar level of take home pay in the UK at Director level, though I'm sure you know role definitions and remuneration would depend on the organisation you join. From a benefits perspective I would seriously look at your holiday allowance - as far as I'm aware UK tends to be a bit more generous. Other than that, if you want to get to a good level of confidence, then I think it would be important to quantify overall quality of life - difference in type of property you can afford (which will be significant if you are relocating to London or thereabouts,) private vs NHS healthcare, and yes the weather. I would also consider the transaction cost(s): relocation, getting rid of these cars which I'm sure cost you a pretty penny etc.
