Operations & Supply Chain Salary Guide 2015
Supply chain and operations professionals and technical experts at the senior level that have strong management experience are highly sought after. However, demand will decrease for mid-level manufacturing professionals, especially those who do not have product knowledge or lack solid technical expertise. This is a result of manufacturing sites relocating out of Mainland China to lower cost regions.
Professionals who work at companies with cutting edge technology are always in high demand. The remuneration for these individuals is normally beyond average market rates.
Supply chain professionals who focus on logistics, transportation, and export/import will face restrictions because of the limitations of their job scope and the fact that they are easily replaceable. Salary increases are uncommon in this sector.
However, supply chain employees who cover the full spectrum of end to end work in this sector will be very competitive in the market, especially those with professional industry focus, such as chemical, consumer goods, food and pharmaceutical. General managers are also highly sought after.
