The most active employers in this slice are Mainframemaster, Rewardgateway and Hawkeyeinnovations.

Of the 17 roles, 17 publish a salary. The median advertised ceiling is £97,250. Contract day rates are annualised at 230 working days a year, so permanent and contract pay compare like for like.

Employers hiring for Jira in this slice most often ask for it alongside Python, AWS, Java, JavaScript, Jenkins and Linux. That co-occurrence is counted from the live listings on this page, not from a fixed list, so it moves with the market.

Questions about these roles

How many Jira jobs in the UK paying over £70k are there right now?

We are tracking 17 live vacancies across 3 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 Jira jobs in the UK paying over £70k pay?

The median advertised ceiling is £97,250, based on the 17 of these roles that publish a figure. The middle half of the market runs from £97,250 to £97,250. Contract day rates are annualised so they compare against permanent salaries.

Can these roles be done remotely?

0% are advertised as fully remote and 100% as hybrid.

Are these contract or permanent roles?

Every role here that states a basis is permanent. Contract vacancies are listed separately.

Which employers are hiring?

The most active right now are Mainframemaster, Rewardgateway and Hawkeyeinnovations. 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 Python, AWS, Java, JavaScript and Jenkins. 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: 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 Jira developer in the UK?

17 of the 17 live adverts here offer home working in some form — 0 fully remote and 17 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 Systems Administrator - Platform Migration & Merge Specialist, Senior Software Engineer (Application Operations), R&D Software Engineer, Mainframe Software Technical Support Engineer and Sr Mainframe Technical Consultant. 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 (71% 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.
