@TheUpGroupthe-up-group
Welcome to The Up Group’s second annual Digital Leaders Remuneration Report. We’ve undertaken this project to again 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 over 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. Thanks in particular to Tech City UK’s Future Fifty programme, Accel Partners, Augmentum Capital, MMC Ventures, Northzone and Octopus Investments who promoted the survey to their networks. If there’s anything in this report that you’d like to discuss, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

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.

ABOUT US
For non-UK respondent data, the following exchange rates for 1 GBP were used for comparison:
Rates correct as of 7/9/15
Design by Jack Hagleywww.jackhagley.com
We surveyed 1,083 respondents for our Digital Leaders Remuneration Report. A link to an online survey was emailed to c.10,000 of The Up Group’s network of senior digital executives, and distributed by partner organisations in August 2015. 75.02% 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, The Up Group serves clients and candidates across the world.
