FOREWORDWelcome to The Up Group’s first annual Digital Leaders Remuneration Report.
We’ve undertaken this project to provide insight into digital executives’ financial compensation across a range of functions, levels and company types.
In order to create this report, we surveyed our network of digital leaders across Europe. We received almost 1,000 responses, the majority of which were from UK-based executives. Respondent demographics are set out on pages 2 and 3, and our methodology is described on page 24.
It goes without saying that these findings are based purely on the information provided by survey respondents, and therefore caution should be exercised before drawing firm conclusions from the data. However, the overarching trends outlined in this report are borne out by our day-to-day experience of building outstanding digital teams for the world’s most innovative companies.
We’re extremely grateful to everyone who took the time to complete the survey, and we’re delighted to be able to share our findings with you. If there’s anything in this report that you’d like to discuss, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

TRENDS
Median salaries reported by male respondents were higher than for female respondents at every level— although the gap is smaller than that for the wider economy.
On average female respondents saw their base salaries increase by 10% from 2013 — almost 5 percentage points more than their male counterparts.
The only segment of survey respondents where women outperformed men in terms of median salaries was amongst female founders, who paid themselves 100.4% of male founders’ salaries.
Respondents with MBAs earn £362 more each year than those without.

TRENDS
The median base salary of survey respondents increased 9% from 2013 to 2014, far higher than the rate of inflation and outperforming the average UK employee’s pay rise
Survey respondents reported that bonus payments made up 20% of their OTE. This was far higher than the average for the UK as a whole, and almost on a par with bonuses in the finance and insurance sector.
In the past 12 months, a quarter of all respondents moved into a new role. Of these, those within HR, Finance and Operations functions saw the greatest median salary increases. The movers included 10 respondents who founded their own companies and are now in CEO, Technology and Commercial functions (hence the % decrease).

This table outlines how compensation packages compare between public companies on the one hand, and VC- and PE- backed companies on the other.
We asked respondents from public companies to provide us with the value of their annual equity or equity-like compensation, rather than a percentage; whereas with VC- and PE-backed companies we asked for the percentage of the company their options or equity represented, assuming all options were fully vested. The table also provides insight into the movement of executives between the different types of organisation during the previous 12 months.

We have broken out Founder as a separate category – and excluded Founder salary and bonus data from the following pages – because in most cases Founders’ salary and equity are vastly different from other executives with similar job titles.

ABOUT US
We surveyed 954 respondents for our Digital Leaders Remuneration Report. A link to an online survey was emailed to c.15,000 of The Up Group’s network of senior digital executives in August 2014. 75.6% of respondents were UK-based, but we have also included non-UK respondent data in our findings. Location appeared to have little or no influence on the data so we decided not to use this as a filter when presenting our findings.
References in the survey to private companies are to unlisted companies that are not VC- or PE-backed. GBP is used throughout.
Our data was cleaned, categorised and reported in that state – without adjustment or refinement. Some erroneous results can and will occur. Throughout the report, median salary values have been presented to account for outliers in respondent data.
The Up Group delivers outstanding digital talent and industry insight for the world's most innovative companies. Our business is driven by a global digital talent network unique in its quality, diversity and depth, and a profound understanding of the digital economy. This enables us to place exceptional candidates into Board, CxO, VP and Director roles across geographies, sectors and functions, and offer world-leading due diligence, talent-mapping, and professional networking services. We have a proud track record of building senior management teams for clients ranging from global tech giants and corporates undergoing digital transformation, to establised businesses looking to expand internationally and fast-growing tech stars. We have broad cross-functional expertise, spanning general management, product, marketing, technology, commercial, sales and business development, operations, finance, HR and strategy. Based in London, and with offices in Scandinavia, The Up Group serves clients and candidates from across the world

For non-UK respondent data, the following exchange rates for 1 GBP were used for comparison:
