FAQs

Where is this data from?

This data was taken from our first 4,000 responses to the global benchmarking survey. While we have received responses from all over the world we have converted all answers into USD (on 7th May 2024) and taken an average at each level of seniority.

Can I access more data without having to wait?

If you'd like access to the full range of data, please get in touch with our team who will be happy to assist. Alternatively, you can follow our co-founder Rich on LinkedIn where he regularly posts insights from our survey and the Movemeon platform.
