AboutThe Michael Page Salary Benchmark is our annual salary report developed to provide hiring managers and candidates with salary references across various industries by job functions, including Finance, Technology, Human Resources, Sales and more.
The report also includes an overview of market trends, hiring demands and job seekers’ sentiments within each industry. This year’s Michael Page Salary Benchmark is available in 13 markets across the Asia Pacific: Australia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mainland China, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam.
Report methodologyThe Michael Page Salary Benchmark is derived from 10,000 data points in our proprietary data and network in Singapore, which includes job advertisements and placements made between July 2018 and June 2019, incorporating salary projections for 2020. Job Applicant Confidence Index, insights from our business leaders, our recruiters’ interactions with companies and industry professionals, as well as other supplemental information from our various studies were also taken into consideration.
This year, the salary figures are represented by the minimum, maximum and median where median is a representation of the middle-most value in a set of data, arranged in ascending order. This means that, half the people who work in a specific field earns less than the median salary from the minimum, while the other half earns more towards the maximum.

Singapore invests in planning and partnership
As we enter a brand new decade, it’s exciting to be presenting another Salary Benchmark for Singapore. This time around we have continued to refine and enhance the look and feel of the report. Aside from our trademark look at indicative salary levels by industry and discipline, we’ve this year taken a dive into the important world of EX, or the Employee Experience.
At the talent end of the market that PageGroup operates in, we continually remind our hiring partners that in areas of hot demand, it is still very much a candidate’s market where hiring is concerned. Many businesses are wisely facing market pressures head on, by investing in crucial skillsets – bringing into their team those who can boost sales, drive digital transformation process, leverage key value data, or sure up their cybersecurity.
Asked what these profiles look for aside from salary, we underline key areas. It’s key to articulate the company’s values, and where they fit into that story. Having a sense of their development plan, and their exposure to tools and problem-solving will be key. And then be ready to move when you’re certain – those who can get to a yes with certainty will often win the race for top talent.
Of course, the best way to hire is always to retain and develop your core team and remain mission-focused. We speak a lot of the importance of a fair and positive culture, and frequently notice the impact that inspiring and empathetic managers have. If times are less certain, good leaders do help you lean towards staying put.
While the macroeconomic outlook is less certain, we retain a cautiously optimistic view for talent, buoyed by a stable outlook, a dynamic region, and the emphasis on forward planning and partnership that stretches into further areas of added value for industry. While spending may be more cautious for a while, there are positive signs in the services sector and business development roles. Plus Singapore is constantly honing its value proposition as a base for regional and global services: and a perfect high-tech, high-end manufacturing hub.

1. Unlike the manufacturing sector, innovation centres and R&D positions are both high-growth areas.
2. Chemical and engineering firms need digitisation and automation talent for both office and site functions.
