Growth of pay, not its level. Not a salary.

What this is, and how to read it

Three layers, never blended

Salary evidence is a pay figure for a role from a source that states it — a government pay matrix, a public recruitment notification, a company's disclosed pay band — with the statistic, the period and the geography kept. Market demand is a hiring signal: year-on-year movement in job postings for the sector a role sits in. Skill signals say which skills a sector is asking for. Each is shown separately, with its own grade, because a demand signal is not a salary and a salary observation says nothing about demand.

What the grades mean

Verified means a role-level pay figure exists in a source we can name and date; limited means the evidence is partial — one source, one geography, or an older period; signal only means demand or skills evidence exists but no pay figure; research gap means nothing on any layer yet. No salary is ever inferred from a demand signal, an industry average or a job title; a role without pay evidence says so.

How to use it

Search a role above for its snapshot. Open a role page for the full evidence table with every observation, its source and its limitations. Use the Market Radar for which sectors, functions and cities are hiring, and the data catalogue for the raw extracts and versions. Sources are official or disclosed, dated, and re-checked; the coverage figures above are computed from the data at each build.
