Marketing & Agency Salary Guides 2026

Our 2026 Marketing & Agency Salary Guides bring together what we’re seeing across the sector right now. They’re shaped by the conversations we have every day, the briefs we take and the hires we support across agencies, inhouse teams, start-ups, scale-ups and established businesses.

If you’re hiring or thinking about your next step, these guides offer a clear snapshot of salary and day rate expectations across B2B and B2C Marketing, Digital Marketing, Client Services and Agency roles across multiple UK regions.

How we benchmark salaries

We benchmark salaries using a mix of real hiring activity, data from our database, industry surveys and our long-term experience of working within the world of Marketing and Agency recruitment.

Because we’re immersed in these markets day in, day out, we can see how salaries vary between regions, teams and sectors and why.

Salary ranges can differ based on a number of things, including:

  • demand for a particular skill set
  • level of responsibility within the team
  • whether the role is agency-side or in-house
  • size and maturity of the organisation
  • sector differences such as B2B vs B2C
  • remote, hybrid or on-site expectations
  • the wider benefits package on offer

Given how varied Job Titles can be across Marketing and Agency teams, we always benchmark based on actual responsibilities rather than title alone.

What these guides include

Across the set, you’ll find:

  • salary bandings across B2B and B2C Marketing roles
  • salary and day rate benchmarks for Digital Marketing roles
  • typical ranges for Agency and Client Services teams
  • insight into how ADLIB benchmarks salaries
  • guidance for employers setting or reviewing salary levels
  • salaries and day rates mapped against Job Titles and seniority

Whether you’re growing a Marketing function, strengthening Client Services or adding to an agency team, these guides offer a practical reference point for 2026.
