"HR Datahub gives me real confidence in my decision making. It makes my pay conversations more productive, especially where it’s harder to agree salaries without the backing of solid evidence.”

HOW IT WORKS

Easy Does It

1

We collect

Right now, HR Datahub is hard at work keeping its salary data up to date. Every day we do all the heavy lifting by taking millions of data points from sites like LinkedIn, Glassdoor and Indeed. So, you don’t have the sweat and tears of scraping websites or sending us data of your own.  
2

You search

Simply enter a job role and click search to find out what the rest of the UK pays. It’s as easy as that. If you want to go deeper, feel free to sharpen your search by business type, location, salary type or skill set.
3

You compare

Does an individual salary size up to the market average? HR Datahub tells you the marketplace median, upper and lower quartiles in just a few clicks. That way you can keep all your salaries fair and square, and your pay strategy in perfect shape.
4

You share

Need to back-up your decision making to the business? With HR Datahub it’s easy to report to leadership teams or hiring managers. And your data is shareable as downloadable charts or tables.
FAQS

Common Q’s
about our pricing

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HR Datahub is very different from conventional salary surveys, which often take a long time to create and can be months out of date by the time they are published.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.

Who uses HR Datahub?

HR and reward teams at UK mid-market businesses, typically 200 to 2,000 employees. That includes HR Managers making day-to-day pay decisions, Reward Specialists building defensible pay frameworks, and HR Directors and finance leaders using it as the shared evidence base for board-level conversations.

Most of our customers work in logistics, manufacturing, retail, hospitality, care, and other operationally-led sectors.
