When an employer doesn't post a salary, we show an estimated annual gross range so candidates have a starting point. Here's exactly how that number is built — and what it doesn't capture.
When you see an estimate
Estimates only appear on jobs where the employer chose not to publish a salary range. If a salary is posted, we show that figure instead.
Data sources
We combine official Cyprus statistics with Eurostat survey data and live job-board listings. Specifically: CYSTAT Average Monthly Earnings 2024 (sector averages, published Oct 2025), CYSTAT quarterly sector breakdowns (2023-2024), Eurostat Structure of Earnings Survey (SES) for Cyprus (role-level distributions), and the Cyprus minimum wage decree of January 2026 (EUR 1,088/month gross post-probation). All figures are indicative estimates and actual salaries vary by role, employer, and individual circumstances.
How the number is built
We start with a category-level benchmark (P25 / median / P75 in annual gross EUR), narrow it by experience band (entry / mid / senior / lead) using role-level survey data, then apply a region multiplier — Nicosia 1.07, Limassol 1.05, Larnaca 1.00, Paphos 0.95, Famagusta 0.92, Remote 1.05. We refine the band again from the job title itself (titles carry a stronger seniority signal than the often-defaulted experience field), and inside broad categories like Technology we apply a sub-role multiplier so backend/devops/security roles trend higher than QA or IT support. When at least five real listings exist for the same (category, experience, location) combination, we blend them into the result with weights that depend on sample size — heavier weight on listings as sample grows. The final range is rounded to the nearest €500.
Known limitations
Sector averages from CYSTAT can skew high relative to entry-level roles. Sub-role multipliers cover Technology, Marketing, Sales and Finance — other categories rely on the broader band. We hide the estimate entirely when the resulting range is too wide to be useful (e.g. benchmark-only with no nearby listings). Estimates are gross annual figures and don't reflect bonuses, equity, or benefits.
