The figures reported above come from Sigmar Recruitment's own published Ireland salary guide (2026). This page is not produced, endorsed, or reviewed by Sigmar Recruitment, it's an independent comparison built by PayMetric Labs, showing Sigmar Recruitment's reported figures alongside our own blended Ireland benchmarks, which draw on Sigmar Recruitment's guide as one of several contributing sources.
For each role, we compare Sigmar Recruitment's reported typical salary to PayMetric Labs' blended national median for that same role in Ireland. A positive variance means Sigmar Recruitment reports higher than the blended market median; a negative variance means lower. It isn't a judgement on which figure is "right", different agencies see different segments of the market depending on their client base and specialisms.
Both figures are aggregate benchmarks, not a quote for any specific role. Company size, sector, location within Ireland, and individual experience all move real offers away from any published median. Use the linked role pages for a fuller breakdown by seniority and location.
