Methodology & Data Sources

Salary ranges are based on publicly available compensation data from LinkedIn Salary Insights, Glassdoor, Mercer European Salary Survey, Korn Ferry pay benchmarks, and published executive search reports (2024–2026). Figures represent total cash compensation (base + typical annual bonus) for director/VP-level roles with 10–20 years experience. Local currency figures converted to EUR at 2025 average exchange rates. Russia figures reflect pre-2022 international benchmark equivalents; current market conditions may differ significantly. All figures are indicative benchmarks — actual compensation varies by company size, sector, and individual profile.
