INTRODUCTION
The PMI biennial report, Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey –
Thirteenth Edition, is an industry-leading source of data for both project
practitioners and organizations that want to stay current with the salary
landscape for today’s project professional.

The latest edition provides comprehensive insights from over 20,000


respondents in 21 countries. Salary data is reported in local currency in the
individual country reports.

Understanding the correlations among skill levels, experience, certifications


and salary can give project practitioners substantial knowledge to compete
effectively in a dynamic job market. This vital data can also help recruiters,
human resources and compensation professionals establish fair and equitable
salaries for project management roles within their organizations.

Report highlights include:


n Most survey respondents included in the study are Project Management
Professional (PMP)® certification holders (78%).
n Survey respondents with a PMP ® certification report higher median
salaries than those without PMP certification—―33% higher on average
across the 21 countries surveyed.
n In all countries, there is some level of agreement that the PMP certification
contributed significantly to salary growth, though this varies considerably
from country to country.
n Further, many survey respondents feel that the PMP certification
is valuable to their career, though this sentiment also varies
between countries.
n About two-thirds (66%) of survey respondents report that their total
compensation (including salary, bonus and other cash incentives) increased
over the 12 months prior to completing the salary survey. Among those
receiving an increase in salary, 61% reported increases of at least 5% over
that time period.

3 Introduction | About This Report
The report includes eight major position descriptions/levels in informing the data. PMI worked with a third-party research
firm, as well as with a volunteer group of PMI members, to make these descriptions as meaningful and “real world” as
possible. The use of these position descriptions to cross-tabulate the data throughout this report makes such information
useful to everyone – from entry-level project managers to senior executives in project management.

PMI members will be able to access a more comprehensive report demonstrating annualized salary information across each
of the following variables within each country:

n
Position description n
Gender
n
Years of work experience n
Department
n
Years worked in project management n
Industry
n
Highest formal education level obtained n
Number of employees in entire organization
n
Degree in project management n
Average project team size
n
PMP certification status n
Typical project budget

The comprehensive report, available to PMI members, includes reported salary increases over the past 12 months and
expected salary increases over the next 12 months, as well as information on employee benefits such as stock options,
pension plans and paid days off.

In addition, the analysis of various demographic variables relating to compensation makes this report a must-have for
project management employees and employers alike, not to mention compensation committees, human resource
departments and executive recruiters interested in the project management profession.

A summary version of the report will be available to everyone on PMI.org, along with access to a customized interactive
salary tool. The interactive salary tool includes the following salary variables:

4 Introduction | About This Report
Report Format
Immediately following this section of the report is the Summary of Findings section, which includes a synopsis of the key
findings from this year’s survey.

The Detailed Findings section is organized by country. All compensation information in this section is shown in the local
currency of each country.

Finally, the following appendices are located near the end of the report:
Appendix A: Demographic Comparisons by Country
Appendix B: Survey Instrument
Appendix C: Sampling Methodology
Appendix D: Certification Value Perception
Appendix E: Exchange Rates

Data Considerations
The validity of data in the report, as in all survey research, is impacted by sample sizes. In some cases, the level of analysis
in this report results in a small sample size. Small sample sizes provide less reliable summary statistics, such as means and
medians, whereas larger sample sizes result in more reliable data. Therefore, salary data is presented in the report
only if at least 10 individuals provided information for a given response choice. That means that no information
(denoted by “--” in the tables) is shown in this report unless there are at least 10 respondents for a given education level,
industry affiliation, company size, etc. Although the number 10 is an arbitrary number, PMI has used this threshold in
previous salary survey reports. Furthermore, requiring such a minimum does ensure respondent anonymity and provides a
greater level of reliability in the data. Sample sizes are reported in all tables by using the symbol “n.” Percentages less than
0.5% are noted by the symbol “*.”

Reporting of Compensation Data


Although this survey did include questions about alternative compensation methods (such as bonuses), those earnings are
not included in the “salary” figures. Instead, earnings from other methods are included in the “total compensation” figures.
Furthermore, only those respondents who reported that they are employed “full time” are included in the salary data.

Salary data is presented for the 25th percentile, 50th percentile (median), 75th percentile and mean. A description of
each follows:

25th percentile The value above which 75% of respondents earned more. For example, if the 25th percentile for
annualized salary was US$60,000, then 75% of survey respondents earned more than US$60,000.

50th percentile Also known as the median. The value at which half of all respondents earned more and half earned less.
For example, if the 50th percentile for annualized salary was US$80,000, then 50% of survey
respondents earned more than US$80,000 and 50% earned less than US$80,000.

75th percentile The value above which 25% of respondents earned more. For example, if the 75th percentile for
annualized salary was US$100,000, then 25% of survey respondents earned more than US$100,000.

Mean Also known as the arithmetic average. The mean is more susceptible to outliers (unusually large or small
numbers) in the data than the median.

5 Introduction | About This Report
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
General Overview
Nearly two-thirds (66%) of survey participants reported an increase in total
compensation (including salary, bonuses and other cash incentives) over the
12 months prior to completing the salary survey. Sixty-one percent of survey
respondents who received an increase in compensation reported a boost of
5% or higher.

Those holding the globally recognized PMI Project Management Professional


(PMP)® certification report considerable earnings increases in most countries
included in this study as compared to their counterparts without PMP
certification. Survey respondents holding the PMP certification report higher
median salaries (33% higher on average across the 21 countries surveyed) than
those without PMP certification. However, the percentage of increase in median
salary among professionals with the PMP certification varies considerably from
country to country.

Many survey respondents also believe that obtaining a PMP certification has
been valuable to their careers in addition to being a significant contributor to
salary growth, though this perception also varies between countries.

Within the country of employment, median salary varied primarily on the


following demographic factors and also fluctuated widely between countries:
n Number of years of experience in project management
n Position/role
n Average size of projects managed, including average project budget and
average project team size

8 Summary of Findings | Number of Years of Experience in Project Management
PMP Certification Status
The majority of survey respondents (78%) are Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification holders.

PMP® certification holders report higher median salaries than their counterparts without PMP certification in most countries
included in this study. However, there is considerable variation in the percentage of the lift in median salary among PMP
certification holders from country to country. PMP certification holders demonstrate the largest salary increases in South
Africa and Colombia, where PMP certification holders report a median salary that is at least 65% higher than those who do
not hold the certification.

The relationship between PMP tenure (which is precisely correlated to years of experience) and salary is important to
consider. Median salary increases with the length of time one holds a PMP certification.

Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey – Thirteenth Edition


12 Summary of Findings | PMP Certification Contribution to Salary Growth
Position
Salary tends to increase as responsibility increases from the role of project manager I to portfolio manager, with notable
variation in the rate of increase between countries. In several countries, the director of project management/project
management office (PMO) role does not command a higher salary than portfolio manager, which may be attributed to wide
variation within the director of project management/PMO role across organizations. The United Arab Emirates, South Africa
and Saudi Arabia demonstrate the most dramatic increases in median salary when going from project manager I to
project manager III.

APPENDIX C
Sampling Methodology
Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey — Thirteenth Edition was sent to a stratified sample of PMI customers from
21 different countries. For the first time, the survey was conducted in multiple languages in addition to English and included
translations in French, German, Japanese, Latin American Spanish, Portuguese and Simplified Chinese. The survey invitation
was sent via an email that included a link to the web-based survey. Using a web-based survey benefited the research in
several ways, including the ability to survey a large number of respondents at a relatively low cost (as compared to other data
collection methods), a condensed data collection time period and a fairly high response rate.

PMI contracted with a third-party market research vendor, PeriscopeIQ, for this project. PeriscopeIQ utilized its advanced
web survey technology platform (www.periscopeiq.com) to conduct this research. PeriscopeIQ is a global strategy consulting
and market research firm with a focus on scientific rigor and research-based methodologies. The salary survey was
conducted according to PeriscopeIQ’s best compensation survey practices, including confidentiality of individual responses.

Email invitations to the web-based survey were sent to 296,814 professionals beginning on 14 March 2023. Nonresponders
were sent a total of four reminder emails throughout the field period, which ended on 19 April 2023. Data collection for the
survey closed with a total of 29,808 completed surveys, yielding a response rate of 10%.

The data collected were run through extensive quality checks by PeriscopeIQ, resulting in the elimination of 6,953 cases
based on the following criteria:

NUMBER
REASON
DELETED

Not full-time employed 3,296

Selected “poor fit” for job position 1,132

Selected undefined country 697

Analyzed to be an outlier or violated other


1,828
best compensation practice principles

Excluded job titles (non-project


2,279
management positions)

As shown in the preceding table, 1,132 respondents were eliminated from the data because they noted that the position
descriptions provided did not adequately represent their current job responsibilities. These 1,132 respondents represent only
3.8% of the total respondent population, which indicates that the position descriptions provided in the survey are fairly
accurate and widely used.

As a result of this data cleaning process, a total of 20,086 respondents were included in the full report.

Since a stratified sampling methodology was used rather than a random sampling, data are not reported in aggregate form
(all countries combined) in this report. Therefore, we have not calculated an overall sample error for the entire sample but
have instead included sample error estimates for each country in the table that follows.

Notes: The sample selection process for determining countries to be included in the thirteenth edition represents a shift
from our historical approach. Countries were still selected based upon having a concentration of PMI members and/or PMP®
certification holders along with the desire to represent all regions of the globe. However, this edition was specially designed
to understand what attributes associated with obtaining a certification have the largest impact on the value perception of
the PMP certification through the application of regression models. This resulted in fewer countries being included in the
thirteenth edition compared to the twelfth edition.

Certification Value Perception
Value Perception of the PMP Certification
Regression models were applied to identify the attributes that have the largest impact on the value perception of the PMP®
certification. When looking across most countries, salary growth and job title advancement can be classified as essential to
driving the value perception of the PMP certification. In addition to these attributes, PMP certification holders also derive
value in other ways that vary by country.
• Increasing one’s skill set contributes to the value perception of the PMP certification in China, France and Saudi Arabia.
• Survey respondents in South Africa and the United Kingdom attributed greater importance to being able to take on
additional jobs and job responsibilities as a result of obtaining the PMP certification.
• Increasing confidence in performing job duties was a strong driver of the value perception of the PMP certification in Japan
and South Africa.
• “Helps me stand out from my peers” was a strong driver for Mexico and Saudi Arabia.
• The perception of the cost being low relative to the value of the certification was notably important in Canada and the
United Arab Emirates.
