Pay by country

Welder pay, country by country.

What ads actually offer — advertised annual pay, the sample behind every number, and a dated exchange rate. Different measures are labelled, never blended.

Country	Advertised annual	≈ £/year	Ads showing pay
Ireland advertised annual median — Careerjet ads showing an annual salary	€38,303	£32,802	6small sample
Dubai & UAE advertised annual median — Careerjet ads showing pay (monthly AED ads annualised ×12)	AED 132,000	£26,731	7small sample

Read this honestly

These are advertised offers, not earned pay — and ads that show money skew toward jobs that need to attract.
The £ column uses ECB reference rates via frankfurter.app, 2026-08-04 · AED via the 3.6725/USD peg · indicative only — not a cost-of-living adjustment.
Tax and living costs differ wildly — UAE pay is tax-free but often bundles accommodation; a bigger number abroad is not automatically a better life.
Canada is missing from annual tables because Canadian ads advertise hourly — its live hourly numbers are on the Canada boards.
