IN FMCG MNC, I feel my salary is low when I look at the posts here. I have job hopped quite a bit and have started with Directs 1st.

My advice, to start in procurement, you can begin in ops as a buyer, stay 1 or 2 yrs then move on to strategy type of positions within procurement and sourcing, don't stay too long in ops. Also in your roles try to pick up many commodity knowledge and contracting even the ones you do not handle. I also find Indirects pay better in Singapore.
