The QS Salary Index is a free, independent salary benchmarking tool built for Quantity Surveyors.
It started as a simple idea: salary conversations in construction are often vague, awkward, or based on outdated survey data. I wanted to create something more useful, transparent, and genuinely shaped by the QS community.
The site collects anonymous salary submissions and turns them into live data that people can actually use when benchmarking pay, reviewing offers, preparing for salary reviews, or just trying to understand where they sit in the market. Every submission helps. Every coffee helps too.
Your support helps keep the site running, improving, and freely available.
It contributes towards things like:
- Hosting and domain costs
- Keeping the salary data updated
- Building better filters and insights
- Adding year-on-year comparisons
- Improving international salary and currency support
- Future features such as downloadable reports, freelance rate data, and QS job listings
This isn’t a big company survey or a recruiter’s gated salary guide. It’s a community-led tool, built by a QS, for QSs.
If the index has helped you benchmark your salary, prepare for a pay review, compare offers, or simply feel a bit more informed, buying a coffee is a small way to support the work behind it.
Thank you for helping make salary data in quantity surveying a little more open, useful, and fair.
