Frequently Asked Questions About HR Datahub
Do I need to submit data on HR Datahub?
No. HR Datahub is built on live external market data, not customer submissions. You get the same live UK pay evidence base from day one, without needing to contribute your own data first.
No infosec review to work through, no waiting to build up a shared dataset, and no reliance on how much other companies choose to share. Your pay decisions stay confidential to your business.
How does HR Datahub compare to traditional salary surveys?
HR Datahub is very different from conventional salary surveys, which often take a long time to create and can be months out of date by the time they are published. Salary surveys usually focus on large enterprises to inform an annual strategy view and can eat up valuable time with painstaking cross-checking of company pay rates against survey like-for-likes.
In contrast, HR Datahub gives you a forward-looking view of what the market is offering right now, refreshed continuously and specific to the exact role and location you're deciding on.
We’ve covered the pros and cons of salary surveys in detail if you would like to explore this topic in more depth.
What is HR Datahub?
HR Datahub is a live salary benchmarking platform for HR and reward teams. It gives you current UK pay data, specific to role, seniority, industry and location, so every pay decision is grounded in what the market is doing right now. Not last year's averages or survey estimates. Live evidence you can point to, ready when the questions come.
HR and Reward leaders use HR Datahub insights to discover live market trends, set market-competitive salaries and make confident decisions about pay. It’s the ideal tool for helping you build pay packages with fair and competitive pay.
Where does HR Datahub get its data?
HR Datahub pulls live pay data directly from millions of live and historical UK job postings, refreshed continuously. Every data point is traceable back to the source posting: the company, the date, the salary stated. That keeps our pay insights right up to date and in line with today’s advertised salaries.
HR Datahub’s pay dataset is one of the most comprehensive in the UK, and you can search salaries by job title, business size, industry, competitors and location. You can also drill down into more niche skills with advanced keyword filtering. When you make a pay decision using HR Datahub, you can defend the underlying evidence line by line.
