What affects a Digital Account Manager's salary?
Seniority
The biggest lever. In Stonor's data a entry level / assistant Digital Account Manager sits around £24,000, while director level is around £62,500. Titles inflate faster than pay, so check the scope, team size and budget behind the title before assuming the top band applies.
Location
Stonor publishes a single UK-average band for this role. Across the roles where we do hold both, London averages roughly 15% higher, which is a reasonable starting assumption until we can publish a split.
Agency size and client mix
Agency bands vary with the size of the agency and the sectors it serves. Niche B2B work (tech, healthcare, financial services) tends to pay above consumer lifestyle and entertainment for the same title, according to Stonor's 2025 marketing report.
