Analysis of Salary Distribution in Germany by The Stepstone Group
The Stepstone Salary Report 2025 reveals key insights into the salary distribution across Germany. Analyzing over 1 million salary data points, the report identifies an annual income threshold of 80,000 euros for the top 10% of earners. There are noticeable regional variations, with top earners concentrated in Hamburg, Hesse, and the southern parts of Germany.
In these economically strong areas, median gross salaries peak at 52,000 euros in Hamburg, compared to the national median of 45,800 euros. Outside of managerial roles, highly skilled professionals such as doctors and IT specialists can also achieve top salaries, reportedly over 100,000 euros annually without personnel responsibilities.
This data underscores the strong demand for specialized skills, particularly in the technology and healthcare sectors. The Stepstone Group's analysis suggests a continuing trend towards competitive salaries to attract top talent amid international market demands.
