Methodology: medians reconcile live advertised UK salaries for this role and region; 25th–75th percentiles are shown only where at least 5 live salaried listings back them. They are measured or omitted, never interpolated. Rows marked indicative are anchored to our curated 2026 baseline ranges until enough live data accrues. Listings advertising an implausible annual figure (a mislabelled hourly or daily rate) are excluded rather than converted, because converting one means guessing the hours behind it.
Indicatively £40,000–£95,000 permanent, with London and senior or lead roles at the top; contract day rates commonly £400–£700.
Cloud-native back-end (Go, Java, .NET), data platforms and mobile tend to sit at the top; WordPress and general web work at the bottom.
Right to work, references and a technical assessment or take-home task; security-cleared work adds vetting.
