FAQ

Common questions about salaries

How current are these salary figures?

The ranges are based on market data from 2024–2025, supplemented with Merqent recruitment data. We refresh the figures every quarter. Use them as an indicator — 5–10% deviation per company is normal.

Does this include holiday pay?

No. The figures show gross annual salary excluding statutory holiday allowance, bonus, pension and other benefits. Always include the full package in salary negotiations.

Why do I earn less than the median?

The median is the middle of the market — half of people earn more and half earn less. Company size, sector, negotiation position and region all explain variation.
