Understanding the Perth Market

Site supervisors in Perth earn a $152,500 median, 53% above the city's $100k all-roles figure, but both pay and demand softened this month: the median fell $7,500 and listings dropped from 39 to 34.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good starting salary for a junior Site Supervisor in Perth?
Site supervisor is not an entry role, so the $114k floor represents smaller-project or leading-hand supervisors. Trade qualifications plus supervisory tickets, resources or major-civil site experience, and FIFO rosters are what move someone toward the $200k top of the band.
Is $152,500 a good salary in Perth?
Yes. At $152,500 the median runs 53% above Perth's $100k all-roles median and nets around $108k after tax, strong even in a resources-inflated city. The one caveat is timing: pay eased this month as resources hiring cooled, so the peak figures may not hold.
How much does a Senior Site Supervisor make in Perth?
There is no separate senior band in this data, but the $200k top decile shows what supervisors on major resources and civil projects earn. Getting there is about project scale, FIFO rosters and full site accountability, with Site Manager and Project Manager ($168k in Perth) the steps beyond.
