Highest Paid Positions In Singapore (2018)

When the 2018 Michael Page Salary Guide was released, it highlighted the salary benchmarks for an array of jobs across many sectors and industries in Singapore. Naturally, you may focus on the higher end of the spectrum – those people who earn the most. However, investigation must not stop with a single survey! I came up with a slim list that includes data from PayScale. PayScale is a company which, “pioneered the use of big data and unique matching algorithms to power the world’s most advanced compensation platform”.

On that note, here are the Highest Paid Positions In Singapore (2018):

#5: QUALITY ASSURANCE DIRECTOR

Other than a potent Wi-Fi connectivity, Quality Directors are in demand countrywide. There is a growing need in the following sectors: semi-conductor, aerospace, and chemical. Quality Assurance Directors in these sectors can expect a salary of about S$173,000 to S$315,000 each year.

Holding excellent technical and people management skills will help you to become a Quality Assurance Director.

#4: HUMAN RESOURCES (HR) DIRECTOR

As the global workplace puts emphasis on developing human capital, the head of Human Resources can negotiate a salary of up to S$328,000 annually. A key factor that contributes to the salary is the individual’s years of experience or prior background as a HR Business Partner. HR Business Partners are tasked to align the company objectives with the employees found locally, regionally, or internationally. Furthermore, they serve as a consultant to management on HR-related issues.

In general, HR Directors found in the banking or financial sector earn the most.

#3: MANAGING DIRECTOR (HEALTHCARE)

It is no secret that Singapore upholds its position as Asia’s fastest growing bio-medical hub! Thus, it creates the need for higher level talents in this industry. Managing Directors in the healthcare sector make a significant amount of money to accompany their significant responsibility. It has been observed that healthcare employers are prepared to provide career progression opportunities to mid to senior-level talents. You can be groomed to earn up to S$390,000 per year.

#2: CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER

In banking and financial services sector, executive level talent is always sought-after! Our generation’s Chief Financial Officers are more strategic, pronounced, and immersed. The deeper integration in strategy, planning, and performance management entails an asking salary of about S$144,257 to S$455,977 per year.

#1: LEGAL COUNSEL

Lawyers in the private practice have the highest salaries as they earn an average of S$500,000 annually.

Without a doubt, the years of experience play an integral part in determining one’s salary. For instance, lawyers with 10 years of experience can earn up to S$375,000 a year. You can expect a 25% jump in their salary (approximately) as you transcend the 15 year mark.

How To Land A Job In The Modern Times

What is the best way to gain the attention of the esteemed recruiters? Consistently dropping your CV in the company’s e-mail? Or perhaps, you can dive into the fresh trend of using social media. The latter is your best bet yet!

Through smart networking and creative strategies, you can get your dream job. Here are just some strategies to keep you busy:

1. ACE YOUR PROFILE

Treat your social media profiles as your striking headlines because potential employers will see these first. Highlight your key skills and prior experiences by adding sufficient information in the “Biography (Bio)” or “About Me” section. For instance, Facebook allows you to include your previous titles by editing the “Work and Education” tab.

Complete your profile by attaching a high-quality and professional photo.

2. USE THE PROFILE’S DIRECTORY TO YOUR ADVANTAGE

If you follow the coveted company’s page on Twitter or Facebook, chances are, they are linked to the current employees and employers. Follow or send a friend request to these people and treat them as your inside source. They may post job vacancies to their feeds or walls before these vacancies are widely advertised.

During the job interview, you will have a rough insight about the company and will be able to find a common ground with the interviewer.

3. BE PROACTIVE IN THE CONVERSATIONS

Take part in the healthy discussions related to the industry or the company that you have been eyeing on. You may share an article that interests you, comment on interesting threads, or open a discussion on your profile. Engage your followers by asking stimulating questions.

Respond to these comments to get a holistic perspective about a company or an issue.

4. STAY PROFESSIONAL AT ALL TIMES

Facebook is usually the first platform that hiring managers visit to get an idea of the “real” you. So unless you want them to know about your addiction to Laksa and Adidas sneakers, you must keep your profile professional at all times.

No matter how much you calibrate your privacy settings, your so-called friends can still screen grab your posts. Be careful what you put online! Remember that many of your future employers will be using social media to spy on you.

5. CREATE AN INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT

Hiring managers know that Instagram is one of the main tools that younger generations use today. To look for young talents, they post ads on Instagram. Just search through the keyword “#singaporejobs” to find lots of entries!

You may create an Instagram account that focuses on your brand. Say that you want to work in Singapore’s fashion industry. Stay ahead of the crowd by showing off your unique style through regular snaps of your #OOTD. Do not forget to tag the company’s products in the picture. This is one way for them to notice your talent and to appreciate your free publicity.

Friendly reminder: Use the power of technology with caution. You do not want to get scammed or mistreated because you let your guards down. 🙂
