Hospital (Private or Public) Designation and Salary Range
 

Anyone know the Appx pay range for the various rank of the hospitals?

With my limited experience in healthcare, below are my guesses, I am currently a Manager grade in private healthcare.

Executive: $2200 to $3500
Senior executive: $2,800 to $4,500
Assistant Manager: $3,500 to $6,000
Manager: $5,000 to $7,500
Senior Manager: $6,500 to $10,000
Assistant Director/AVP: $8,000 to $12,000
Deputy Director/AVP: $10,000 to $15,000
Director/VP: $13,000 to $25,000
CFO/SVP: $18,000 to $35,000
COO/SVP: $18,000 to $50,000
CEO: $30,000 to $100,000 (Depend on how big the company is).

I would say this is pretty accurate for the GLC (non healthcare) that I am in.

Was with Public Institution 2 years ago .. from what i know

E: $2600 - $5400
SE: $4000 - $6500
AM: $4600 - $7500
M: $5300 - $8900
SM/AD: $7000 - $12000
DD:$10k-$15k
D:$13k-20+K

From what i understand private --> public usually will drop a grade or 2... depends on the salary... =) hope this helps

Private Hospital vs RH Annual Package Comparison
 

Hi there, will any experts be able to advise on the following for private hospitals vs RHs?

1) Who pays more competitively on the monthly starting base salary - Private Hospital or RH?
2) Who pays better on in terms of annual package - Private or RH?
2) What is the average percentage of salary adjustment in private hospital vs RH?
3) How long does it take to be promoted in private hospital?
4) For Fresh graduate, is it better to work in Private Hospital or RH? Why?

Thanks much!

This is pretty much accurate for hospitals / HPB / MOH-related hospitals.
Range is about there

How many years between each promotion?

No limit i guess. It can take as short as a year to as long as forever :).

My best guess is assuming if you don't change job, stay in one company,

Average Performer: 10 years to get from Executive to AM/Mgr

Above Average Performer: 10 years to get from Executive to Snr Mgr/AD

Excellent employee with huge potential 10 years can reach Director (Public Sector)

Excellent Employee with huge potential + Huge connection 10 Years can be CEO in private sector.

Just my best guess.

Just my humble opinion.

1. I think both are pretty much the same. But public sector has 2 months more bonus. (executive level)
2. If same base pay, public sector pay more.
3. I think about the same for the annual increment. But in the public sector, u may getting additional adjustment every few years as government like to make healthcare more appealing.
4. Private sector will be better in this aspect. If u are capable, you will be recognised easily. For public sector, even if you capable, you may not shine as there's too many "Stars" and too many red tape.
5. For fresh grad, i would suggest join big public hospital first. SGH, TTSH etc. These big names will help you in your resume 10 years down the road.

I'm currently working in one of the public hospitals under the Singhealth cluster. I'm working as an allied health and back in 2016, Singhealth had a salary adjustment and the pay scale posted above is pretty accurate. For my job grade, I'm under AM, increment wise is based on a certain percentage, for B grade, it's about 2.x percent plus an additional $50 increment per year, bonus for B grade is about 2.5 months, nobody knows the bonus for other grades as it is never officially announced, only the person having the said grade will know when they see their salary slip.

Progression is very slow, it generally takes at least 5 to 10 years to climb to the next job grade. I heard that the pay increment is only $200 when you gets promoted?! LOL.

I got low balled by the HR when I joined, I wasn't offered any pay increment by the HR from my previous job as HR claimed that the overall package is higher than my previous job, despite the fact that I have a Masters. Sigh I should have fought harder during salary negotiation back then. As a result, I feel that I'm drawing a lower salary than market rate based on my qualifications and my experience. I still feel bitter but oh wells, just got to suck it up and hopefully the next salary adjustment will come soon.
