Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good starting salary for a junior Site Supervisor in Perth?
The $101,000 floor assumes a trade background and site experience, so this is a progression role rather than an entry point. Leading hand and foreman positions are the usual feeders. Resources and civil experience pay above commercial building at the same level in this market.
Is $143,260 a good salary in Perth?
Yes. At $143,000 a site supervisor earns 50.8% above Perth's all-roles median of $95,000, with take-home near $1,968 a week and moderate living costs. It leads every other capital for this title. The narrow $17,000 gap to project management means the next promotion is worth less here than in Brisbane, where the same step is worth $55,000.
How much does a Senior Site Supervisor make in Perth?
The ceiling is $200,000, reached on major resources or infrastructure projects rather than through years alone. Project scale and roster arrangements are the levers. Project management at $160,000 and construction management are the usual next titles, though the pay step is modest in this market.
