What this does and does not do
It reports what employers wrote in live adverts. It is not a salary survey, not a benchmark and not an offer: this site introduces candidates to a job board and neither sets nor guarantees any rate.
A figure appears only where at least 5 live adverts in that scope state pay. Adverts that say competitive, negotiable or depending on experience count towards the total and are left out of every figure.
Nothing between the published scopes is filled in. There is no model, no smoothing and no adjustment for the cost of living, experience or benefits.
