How to read these numbers

Stats use only listings that publish a salary range (min–max). “Average” is estimated as the midpoint (min+max)/2, aggregated across salary listings.

Use the range as an anchor, then open recent listings to verify level, contract type, and scope before you compare offers.

FAQ

Based on listings that publish a range, the estimated average is ~€2,478 (range €786–€3,929).
Why does the coverage show 85%?

What currency and period are these salaries?

How to use these insights

  • Use the distribution to understand typical salary bands (not just averages).
  • Compare experience levels and technologies to calibrate negotiations and career moves.
  • Use the tools to estimate take-home pay (CIM) or contractor outcomes (PFA/SRL).

Important caveats

  • Charts use job listings with explicit salary ranges; not all jobs disclose pay.
  • Averages may use midpoints of ranges for aggregation.
  • Location, remote policy, and seniority labels come from listings and can vary by company.

Methodology

Data sources
We aggregate and analyze salary ranges from IT job listings published on IT Jobs List. Some listings include salary bands explicitly; others may not.
  • Active job listings on IT Jobs List
  • Salary ranges provided by employers (when present)
  • Job metadata (role, seniority, location, tech stack) used to group and compare results
Normalization and assumptions
To keep comparisons useful, we normalize the way we interpret listing data across companies.
  • Salary figures are displayed in EUR where possible; listings may use different currencies and compensation structures.
  • When a listing provides a range, we may use the midpoint for aggregate charts.
  • Remote/hybrid/office and employment type are taken from the listing and may differ across teams within the same company.
Limitations
These insights reflect the market as described by listings, not private compensation data.
  • Not all jobs publish salary ranges, so some segments may be under-represented.
  • Job titles vary between companies; we group them, but edge cases exist.
  • Outliers can appear; trends are more reliable than any single datapoint.
