GovTech
 

Hi,

Anyone working at govTech can advise?
Any idea fresh graduate with honors from local university should enter what which grade? and what is the salary range?
Seems like that have Grade 1 to 14. 1 is the lowest and 14 the highest. Correct me if i am wrong.

Salary for 1st class fresh graduate is 4.9-5k range. Not sure about the exact grade

Around 3.5k more likely, remember they pay 4-6 months bonus, base is quite low because of that
Starts at grade 7, assistant manager
Grade 8 & 9 are manager, 10&11 senior manager, 12 AD (starts to enjoy double corporate bonus)

What is double corporate bonus?

besides 12months + aws (13th month), the bonuses break into a few component:

market adjustment: typically less than 1 month
corporate bonus: when corporate KPIs are met, typically around 1 month, grade 12 and above receive twice of this number
individual performance bonus: how good you perform (or how good your RO and NLS perceive), typically 2-3 month for average performer

My information is not speculation, fresh graduates with first class are indeed offered 4,9XX, just like DSTA (by the way that's last year graduates' starting pay, they are going to adjust it again for this year's graduating batch)

anyone knows g10 typical monthly salary range?
g9-10 is consultant right?
on average should i take 15 or 16 months package for calculation?

Roughly 10-12k on a 18 months package.

g10 got 10k? not even senior consultant.. 18 months.. maybe be super high flyer.. probably this salary range is for high flyer?

I think what was meant was, 10k x 12 mths = 120k package over 18 months?
Hence, monthly base is actually 120k/18 months = 6.6k per month

g10 average gross base pay is around 6k ~ 7k.

as for bonus, it depends. some guy here already gave the components. in real terms, the best I've ever got (average+ performer) was 5 months (pre 2008). Post 2008 GFC when economy tanked, it was 2 months. In all likelyhood, it is going to be around 3 months.

realistically, a g10's total package will be around 100k, inclusive of aws. 6.5k x 16 months = 104k.

-> from pre-govtech/IDA days.

18 months quite optimistic huh? probably use 15 months for calculation? aws+vb? heard there are some market adjustment thingy. any idea how it works?

can advise what are the bonus components and average month?
aws = 1
vb = 1
company performance = 1
what else?

also where can we go after career in GovTech? end user?

Borrow from earlier post. It is more of less accurate.

market adjustment: typically less than 1 month
corporate bonus: when corporate KPIs are met, typically around 1 month, grade 12 and above receive twice of this number
individual performance bonus: how good you perform (or how good your RO and NLS perceive), typically 2-3 month for average performer

Go anywhere also can lah. Have friends who left for private sector as well as public sector.
Of course, if you spend too long there, it will be harder to adapt.

so is it safe to base on average a 16 months package?
aws (1) individual performance (2) corporate + market adjustment (1)

Yes, 16 months on a 6k -7k per m is reasonable rule of thumb. I left at g10 around that range 2 years ago.

how many years of experience do you have when you are on g10?

can advise what's the average increment and when is the increment period?

Can I add on? What is the grade for a senior project manager?

I joined at g9 in 2007 with around 4 years of experience (technically, it is longer but it's complicated) and left in 2015 at g10.

It's alright but I left because I was not promoted to g11 due to circumstance beyond my control.

I recall it was around 4%? Might have changed. It comes together with the annual bonus which is given out in the June payroll.

TS asking about govtech. It is public knowledge that that the defense trio (Dstar Dso Csit)offers high salary due to more possibly non transferable or declarable skills and of course security clearance .

Male FCH 2015 - $5,900 (21MONTH PACKAGE)

And yes, the answer was given for GovTech. I'm merely offering a comparison of what graduates can command in other stat boards. There are examples of 5k+ starting salaries for a fresh masters graudate (direct masters local Uni) at IE Singapore. High 4K is not a fake figure.

What is the grade of a senior project manager?
 

Hi, What is the grade given to a senior project manager?
Any idea of what is the salary range?

G11 -around 6 to 9k

AD Grade
 

Receive a call to go for interview for an AD post with one of the ministry doing IT ...

What is the grade for AD? My current annual paid is about 180k ..( bank )

They won't be able to match your current pay, so forget it. AD is a glorified senior manager's job.

At 180k, you will be pegged to a MX9 grade by the PSD scale or a GovTech G13 grade. Either of those grades are usually for a director level.

Matched
 

Government AD Equals to most bank VP level ..... not too bad for job stability

Which ministry posting?

I think you may have misread my post.

In any case, titles like senior manager, VP are used loosely in Singapore, both public and private sectors.

My experience (and it is just a generalization, since my experience in the government is limited to, 1 ministry, 2 statboards) is:

• AD salary is equal pegged around MX10, which averages 120k ~ 130k PA.
• Agencies, especially statboards have some flexibility in title and pay; that's why some agencies skip the AD title and replace with SM. Some have a Senior AD instead.
• As a rule of thumb/generalization, my opinion is an DD's average is from 145k PA and up.

In other words, anyone looking for a job in the public service needs to study the compensation carefully instead of looking at the job title.

As for Bank VP, there are others more knowledgeable than me on this subject but 170 ~ 180k PA would not be far off... for a local bank.

Hope this helps.

Hi all, Imma fresh grad (second upper) applying to work Govtech.

Any comments on culture at Govtech?
Whats the average salary for a fresh grad?
(I do have about one year of internship experience if that makes a difference)

Senior manager , AD , DD , D
 

Does the job title standardized across agency/stat-board ? Getting confuse ...

One of my friend joining in as AD under grader 12 with salary 9K for a large ministry , another friend joining as Senior manager with grade 11 with Salary 11K under stat board .


Both have working experience about 15 years .

Why such big differences ?

I know someone joining as Deputy Director with salary of 8K ... small stat board .

Stat boards were created by the government to take charge of running specific domain areas, with the flexibility akin the private organizations (unlike their parent Ministries). While they freely borrow job titles from the Ministries or each other, their pay structures can be drastically different.

Agencies are supposed to be self-sufficient in where possible through the fees that they collect (agencies that act as regulators for example). In cases that they are not, they get funded by the government.

And that is the clue. A statboard like say, National Heritage Board, do that regulate and collect any major fees? It is safe to say that the amount the collect for entrance fees to the museums would barely cover the operating costs.

Given this situation do you think a manager in NHB will get the similar salary range than say MAS or LTA?

My friend told me govtech had revamp their job grade to alphabetical like A B C D ...


Anyone know how it mapped to old scheme ?

New
 

What is the difference in the 1st and 2nd interview?

AD should be G12

What is the entry grade for fresh grad? How much are they paying?
