Frequently asked questions
Where does this salary data come from?
All salary numbers are derived from real UK tech job listings on Geekery.io. We use every job that either is currently live or expired within the last two years, in GBP, and with a published salary range.
How often is the salary data updated?
The aggregation job runs every night at 03:30 Europe/London, so the numbers you see here are at most 24 hours old.
Do you include contract or only permanent roles?
Both. We aggregate every job with a published salary range regardless of employment type. Day rates are annualised using a 5-day, 8-hour working week.
Why median instead of average?
Median is far less affected by a small number of very high or very low outliers, so it gives a more honest picture of what a typical role pays. We do also show the mean (average) alongside the median for reference.
What does 'midpoint salary' mean?
Each job lists a min and max salary. We take the average of those two numbers and, if the salary period is monthly/weekly/daily/hourly, multiply it up to an annual figure.
Is remote work paid the same as on-site?
Based on the last two years of UK tech job listings, median remote and on-site salaries are within 5% of each other for the same role and experience level — the gap is much smaller than candidates expect, and varies more by category than by work mode. The salary-by-work-mode chart on each category page shows the live breakdown.
Can I download the data?
Not yet — the data is presented on a per-category basis above. If you'd like a full export, get in touch and we can discuss a research partnership.
