The source doesn't publish a separate London band for this role, so we can't quantify a London premium here. Across the roles where both bands exist, London averages about 15% higher. Regional searches outside London fall back to the UK figure and say so.

Market context

Demand for digital marketing skills is up 33% year on year. Platform-agnostic people with CRM, SEO/GEO and paid skills are hot property — good ones don't stay on the market. Too many employers bundle paid, SEO, CRM and content into one job: be specific about what you actually want.

How we calculate this

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.

  • Skills that push pay higher

    CRM, SEO/GEO and paid skills combined. Programmatic, automation and personalisation. AI-in-search (GEO/AEO) literacy. (Source: Stonor Search Marketing Salary Benchmark 2025.)
