Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good starting salary for a junior Project Coordinator in Sydney?
A project coordinator starting in Sydney earns from around $80k (the p10). Construction, IT or infrastructure project exposure, scheduling and stakeholder-management skills, and familiarity with project tools (MS Project, Primavera) are what push someone toward the $125k top of the band.
Is $100,000 a good salary in Sydney?
Yes. At $100k the median runs 5% above Sydney's $95k all-roles median and nets roughly $75k after tax, a solid result for a coordination role in a high cost of living city. Rising demand also gives candidates leverage on sector and project choice right now.
How much does a Senior Project Coordinator make in Sydney?
There is no separate senior band in this data, but the $128k top decile shows where experienced coordinators land. The clear step up is Project Manager (median $160k in Sydney), where owning delivery, budget and risk rather than supporting it drives the pay jump.
