Where does this data come from?

We compute these statistics every month from the salaries advertised in job offers published on Jober. Amounts are the midpoint of the advertised range, converted to pounds sterling and shown as gross annual pay. Only locations with enough job offers are shown, and outliers are excluded so a single listing cannot skew the average.
