The most active employers in this slice are Johnathonpasley, Mainframemaster, Torquepartnership and makethisdress.

Of the 35 roles, 5 publish a salary. The median advertised ceiling is £97,250. The middle half of the market sits between £40,000 and £97,250, so anything above the upper figure is a genuinely strong offer for lead and principal Jira jobs in the UK.

Questions about these roles
How many lead and principal Jira jobs in the UK are there right now?
We are tracking 35 live vacancies across 31 employers. The crawler revisits employer careers pages continuously and roles disappear from this page as soon as they come down, so the count reflects what is genuinely open today.
What do lead and principal Jira jobs in the UK pay?
The median advertised ceiling is £97,250, based on the 5 of these roles that publish a figure. The middle half of the market runs from £40,000 to £97,250. Contract day rates are annualised so they compare against permanent salaries.
Can these roles be done remotely?
14% are advertised as fully remote and 43% as hybrid. The rest are on-site or do not say — where an employer is silent we leave it blank rather than guessing.
Are these contract or permanent roles?
3% are contract or fixed-term and the remainder are permanent or unstated. A quoted day rate is treated as contract even when the advert does not use the word.
Which employers are hiring?
The most active right now are Johnathonpasley, Mainframemaster, Torquepartnership, makethisdress and Browseinfo. Every vacancy links straight to that employer's own careers page — we are an aggregator, not the hiring company, and there is no middleman between you and the application.
What other skills do these roles ask for?
Most often AWS, Scrum, Python, JavaScript and SQL. That is counted from the live adverts on this page rather than a fixed list, so it tracks what employers are asking for this month.
How much does a Jira developer earn in the UK?
£97,250 is the middle of what is advertised here, which is 77% above the £55,000 median across UK IT as a whole. Read it as the ceiling an employer is advertising towards rather than an offer: 30 of these adverts name no figure at all, and those are the ones where asking early is worth most.
Can you work from home as a Jira developer in the UK?
20 of the 35 live adverts here offer home working in some form — 5 fully remote and 15 hybrid. Fully remote means the advert states no office requirement; hybrid means it names a split.
Are there entry-level or graduate Jira developer jobs in the UK?
Not right now — every live advert here signals mid-level experience or above. Graduate intakes are seasonal, so this is worth checking again rather than reading as a permanent state of the market.
What job titles are used for this role?
Employers on this page advertise it as Engineering Manager, Technical Project Manager, GR8 ENTITY|Digital Project Manager, UK - GR8 ENTITY, Senior Odoo Project Manager Careers | ERP Jobs at Browseinfo and ML Lead Technical Architect. Searching one wording and not another is the most common way people miss vacancies, which is why this page groups them.
