Almost two-thirds of engineers with 3-5 years’ experience received a pay increase of more than 5% in the past year according to findings published today in Engineers Ireland’s 2022 Salary Survey. 

The annual publication by Engineers Ireland, accessible to members only, presents up-to-date information on the salary levels and employment benefits received by engineers employed in Ireland. The information contained within the report was collected through an online survey which received 1,955 responses from Engineers Ireland members in January-February 2022.  

In addition to general trends in salaries and employment benefits, such as maternity and paternity leave, the report also highlighted the additional remuneration received by engineers who achieve Registered Professional Titles. The report found that Chartered Engineers can expect to earn €5,000-€10,000 per year more than an engineer without a professional title with the same number of years of experience. Chartered Engineers, with more than 15 years’ experience, who become Fellows of Engineers Ireland can also expect to earn an additional €15,000 per year.
