In a competitive market, understanding what to pay – and where to find the right talent – is critical. Our Pay & Reward Benchmarking services give you the clarity and confidence to make informed decisions that attract, retain, and reward the people who power your business. Unlike automated tools, we take a consultative approach to deliver a definitive salary benchmark service. Our in-house researchers analyse your roles in context, considering size, sector, and structure, to deliver accurate, tailored salary data. Combined with our Talent Analytics, you’ll gain a complete picture of the skills landscape: who you’re competing with, where talent is located, and what it costs to secure it. Whether you’re creating new roles, planning a restructure, or shaping your long-term workforce strategy, we provide the insight you need to stay ahead.
We have an extensive track record of producing in-depth, bespoke salary benchmarking reports that have enabled clients to develop attraction strategies for future recruitment needs, improve employee attraction and retention rates and inform change and organizational restructuring.
The Hays methodology brings independence to any review, as well as robust evidence of what others in the market are doing both now and in the future. This information will enable you to make sound decisions around developing the most appropriate and competitive benefit structure for your organization.

Pay & Reward Benchmarking FAQs
Salary benchmarking is essential whenever you need clarity on pay structures to remain competitive and compliant.
Common scenarios include:
Our benchmarking reports are tailored to your organisation’s context, considering sector, size, and role complexity – not just generic job titles.
Spending time on salary benchmarking and ensuring you formulate a well-researched and comprehensive salary and benefit strategy can pay dividends, meaning you should only need to do it once or twice a year.
