Supply chain professionals with a bachelor’s degree have a median salary of $78,750, 24% higher than the national median, according to a survey of 2,467 U.S supply chain professionals by the Association for Supply Chain Management (ASCM).
The survey showed broad job satisfaction within supply chain roles, with 88% of respondents saying they had a positive career outlook.
ASCM describes the gender pay gap in the supply chain profession as “narrowing.” There is no gap between genders for employees under 30. But female supply chain professionals age 30 to 39 have a median salary that is 93% the size of their male counterparts. ASCM points out this is “higher than what women on average nationally earn which is 82% of what men earn.” But for employees aged 50 or over the gap is worse than the national average with female supply chain professionals in this age range making about 79% of what the men their age are bringing home.
