SALARY SURVEY 2016 - KEY FINDINGS

Paul McArdle, Managing Partner, The Panel - www.thepanel.com

The Panel is delighted to work with Chartered Accountants Ireland Leinster Society to bring you the 2016 Salary Survey. Some of the main findings of the survey are as follows:

• Average Salary Package (base salary + car or car allowance + bonus) for a Chartered Accountant in

Leinster is ¤109,756. This is an increase of almost 9% on the 2015 figure of ¤100,780.

• The Average Salary Package for a Chartered Accountant in their first year post-qualification taking

a position in industry stands at ¤56,800. The Average Salary Package for a Chartered Accountant in

their first year post-qualification taking a position in financial services is ¤58,100.

• 75% of respondents have seen their salary increase by at least 10% over the last three years.

• Most Chartered Accountants work in industry, business and financial services – 76% of respondents work in these sectors, while 24% work in practice.

• 41% of respondents have been promoted in the last three years, compared to 49% responding this way in 2015.

• Members are more confident than ever with 88% finding the jobs market positive.

• The more experienced Chartered Accountants working in industry are beginning to be on par or getting paid slightly more than their financial services counterparts.

We recommend you start by reading the section Interpreting the Tables. Finally, I would like to thank the team at the Chartered Accountants Leinster Society for all their help and support. It is much appreciated.

Paul McArdle

“We know that employers are keen to hold on to their key people. Three quarters of our survey respondents have seen their salary increase by more than 10% in the last three years. Businesses and firms value the skills of Chartered Accountants highly and are willing to negotiate to retain that talent.”

• Average bonus received – 40,641 – The average bonus received by the 32 respondents who received a bonus.
