Hey everyone! I’m curious about pay rates for Atlassian admins in the EU. I’ve been working as a Jira and Confluence Data Center admin for a couple years now. When I started, I knew nothing about Atlassian stuff. Now I’m pretty good at it. I can handle big projects, give support all the time, and make quick changes when needed.
I work full-time (38.5 hours a week) and I’m based in Austria. I’ve tried looking online for salary info, but it’s hard to find good info.
What do you think is a fair salary for someone like me? How much should I be making in euros? Any input would be super helpful. Thanks!
As someone who’s been in the Atlassian ecosystem for a while, I can share some insights. Compensation for Atlassian admins in Europe varies widely, but with your experience level and location in Austria, you should be aiming for the upper end of the mid-range bracket.
Consider factors like the size of your company, the complexity of your Atlassian environment, and any additional responsibilities you’ve taken on. Have you obtained any Atlassian certifications? These can significantly boost your market value.
Based on current market trends, a salary range of 65,000 to 75,000 euros annually wouldn’t be unreasonable for your position. However, don’t forget to factor in other benefits like bonuses, stock options, or additional perks when evaluating your total compensation package.
It might be worth reaching out to recruiters specializing in Atlassian roles for a more precise benchmark in the Austrian market.
As an Atlassian admin myself, I can tell you that compensation really depends on a lot of factors. In my experience, for someone with a couple years of experience in Austria, you should be looking at around 70-80k euros annually. That’s what I’ve seen for similar roles in the region.
One thing to keep in mind is that your skills are in high demand right now. The Atlassian ecosystem is growing rapidly, and companies are willing to pay a premium for experienced admins. Don’t sell yourself short!
Have you considered looking into contract work? I made the switch a while back and found I could command higher rates. It’s not for everyone, but it’s worth considering if you want to maximize your earning potential.
Whatever you decide, make sure you’re negotiating for what you’re worth. Good Atlassian admins are hard to come by, so don’t be afraid to ask for what you deserve.
hey JessicaDream12, salaries can vary a lot depending on the company and location. in austria, i’d guess around 50-60k euros for your experience level. but dont quote me on that! maybe try asking HR or colleagues discreetly? or check glassdoor for similar roles. good luck with your salary research!
