How biomass power plant manager pay ranges in Gibraltar
A good way to think about salary in Gibraltar is to look at the distribution rather than the headline average. Half of all biomass power plant managers in Gibraltar earn less than 49,200 GIP a year, and the other half earn more.

Biomass power plant manager gender pay gap in Gibraltar
The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Gibraltar is no exception. Male biomass power plant managers in Gibraltar earn an average of 51,100 GIP a year, while female biomass power plant managers earn around 47,100 GIP. That works out to a 8% gap in favour of men, even when comparing people doing the same work.
A pay gap of this size has a real long-term cost. Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.
