What these roles pay

Read from employers' own job postings — the ones that publish a salary. No survey, no self-reported figures, nobody's guess. Every number below says how many postings and how many employers it rests on, and we do not publish a cell that rests on too few of either.

There is no breakdown by role or seniority yet. That is a gap rather than a choice: the postings we store do not record a role family or a level, so every figure below covers a whole country, or everywhere we read. It can tell you what a market pays. It cannot yet tell you what your job pays.

Where we can publish a figure

4 countries have enough employers behind them to publish. A country needs five employers and ten postings before we will print a figure — below that, one employer's pay could be worked out from it. The hatched tiles are the European countries we cannot publish a figure for — whether too few employers have posted one, or we hold nothing from them yet.

Only postings whose employer published a figure — most do not, so this is not the market, it is the part of the market that says.

How this is worked out, and what it cannot tell you

Not enough employers yet in 37 other countries in Europe — which ones
