Generic salary guides don’t cut it for Irish contractors. Revenue’s PRSI Class S rules, the USC surcharge over €100k, pension relief at marginal rate — these compound in ways that make a spreadsheet essential before you accept any offer.
DayRate.ie calculates your floor rate with full 2026 Revenue compliance — so you walk into negotiations knowing exactly what €550/day actually means for your take-home.
Scrum masters typically earn €450–€650/day in Ireland. Agile coaches and SAFe Release Train Engineers working across multiple teams command €600–€750/day.
At €450+/day, a limited company structure usually saves €10,000–€20,000 a year versus an umbrella company once you factor in pension relief and expense deductions — run both scenarios in the calculator above.
