How the sector figure is worked out
An advert counts towards Engineering & Manufacturing when its title, its employer or its category places it there and it is classified as Programme Manager. An advert that names no sector counts towards the every-sector figure only: a wrong sector would put its pay in the wrong comparison.
Adverts that state no pay (competitive, negotiable, depending on experience) are counted in the total and left out of every figure, which is why the share stating pay is printed beside the sample.
Nothing is estimated. Below 5 adverts stating pay this site publishes no figure and says how many it has. The full method.
