.. cannot edit above post. I'm thinking about returning to SG to work. I am Singaporean.

It is definitely doable but depends on how you sell yourself and negotiate. I am assuming 100k is in SGD and 100k/13 = ~7.7k monthly. If you include bonuses and what not 100k/15 or 100k/16 will be even more doable.

You can attempt to come in as a senior lecturer with your PhD and experience. But 5 years exp is actually not that long.

you will be pegged at high IPS6 or low IPS7, depending on your nego skills.
Salary wise, it will be 90k to 100k per annum (incl 13 month and bonuses).

is it an ivy league university?

do u have industry experience?

Asking
 

You are in admin or lecturer role? I have 10 years experience in work-but only IPS 5 now in administrative role.

Anyone knows how performance bonus is like for IPS 5 for Admin? C+ B B+ and A?

Do share

Ah, that's good to hear. My target is about 100 p.a. since that's my outside option, working in another stat board. I am also confident in getting a very strong reference from one of my professors attesting to my teaching capabilities.

If I from ivy league, sure say one mah.. I'm from one of the top 5 US public universities. I'm here on full scholarship (stipend + tuition) for my PhD. Decided midway that research not my cup of tea, and so searching for public sector or teaching jobs. No industry experience.



What's the workload like? Do you just teach the same few courses every semester, or does it change depending on departmental needs? Is there a lot of miscellaneous admin stuff to do on top of the regular teaching workload?

To draw $100K/year at Senior Lecturer, you'd need to also come in with industry experience, network contacts, and able to take up industry projects immediately. At Senior Lecturer, your teaching prowess would be a given: so while having testimonials from your University faculty on your teaching capabilities can help, IMO it won't be the main factor if you getting that target annual salary.

What you're teaching and how frequently that changes depends on the general disciplinary area and also make-up of the Polytechnic school you're in. Generally speaking, the subjects you're teaching in an infocomm school e.g. will tend to evolve more frequently.

You can expect a fair bit of admin, academic administration e.g. various system setups of your subjects, attendance, filing of your teaching records and materials. As a Senior Lecturer, you would be expected to do these properly diligently. Is it manageable? In my opinion, yes: but if you're the type who hates these support activities, is reluctant to do outreach or take on industry projects or competitions, and only want to be in classroom teaching, then you might still get in as a Senior Lecturer, but you might find your progress from your overall attained performance grade slowed.

Isn't it strange that they are offering gross salary based on annual package vs expected salary given that PB, bonus are all variable?

No what.

the contract defines your salary by month..... so you can accept or not accept.
