Figures are computed from advertised salaries on live, screened accounting & finance vacancies listed on Joboru. We parse the first £ figure in each advert, exclude rates marked hourly, daily, weekly or monthly, apply sanity bounds of £10,000–£500,000, and count each distinct employer and salary combination once — so a single advertiser posting many identical listings cannot skew the numbers. These are advertised figures, not settled pay. Updated Sept 2026; recomputed hourly from the live index.
