Questions about these roles
How many JavaScript jobs in the UK paying over £40k are there right now?
We are tracking 90 live vacancies across 45 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 JavaScript jobs in the UK paying over £40k pay?
The median advertised ceiling is £60,000, based on the 90 of these roles that publish a figure. The middle half of the market runs from £50,000 to £75,000. Contract day rates are annualised so they compare against permanent salaries.
Can these roles be done remotely?
29% 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?
1% 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 Mainframemaster, Cyanapse, Apptastic Coder, Zerotwodigital and Svgc. 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 SQL, Python, AWS, React and Linux. 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 JavaScript developer earn in the UK?
£60,000 is the middle of what is advertised here, which is 9% 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: 0 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 JavaScript developer in the UK?
65 of the 90 live adverts here offer home working in some form — 26 fully remote and 39 hybrid. Fully remote means the advert states no office requirement; hybrid means it names a split.
Are there entry-level or graduate JavaScript developer jobs in the UK?
2 of the roles on this page read as graduate or junior level, which is 2% of what is live. Level is read from the job title, so a role advertised without one is counted as mid-level and may still be open to less experience.
What job titles are used for this role?
Employers on this page advertise it as Senior Full Stack Developer, Front-End Web App Developer, Extensive experience with front-end development., Back-End API Developer and Full Stack Developer. Searching one wording and not another is the most common way people miss vacancies, which is why this page groups them.
How much experience do these roles need?
The largest group is mid level (66% of the page). Seniority is read from the job title, so a role that does not signal a level in its title is counted as mid-level.
