Unregistered What does supply chain manager do anyway? Visiting wArehouses and stuff...sounds like warehouse or logistics manager...which sounds quite low classs. Sounds like uncle in short sleeve shirt stressed and tired at coffeeshop, if fired will have no alternatives unless connections needing another warehouse to be managed. Like sitting in dhl warehouse.

You engineer and finance really want to do that? Or is my understandijng of scm wrong?

Unregistered the supply chain manager in my company did not take your route. he was an engineer in the aerospace industry all along. His salary is about 8k. Not being paid more than finance manager, engineering manager or quality engineer. Perhaps it differs across industries.

and I dont think I can be a financial controller

I ve got mechanical engr degree in ntu, ACCA, and now almost finish CPIM (one unique cert for supply chain)

wish to check on:

1. Is my assumption correct? Supply chain manager paid better than finance manger? Can it be up to 10k? (I am ok for 7-10k)

2. I got no interest in joining bank or investment bank or private equity... so I didnt study CFA at all...is this a right choice? CFA helps in supply chain career?

3. I m now in my early 30, stepping between two diciplines, can kindly compare prospect of career and future financial rewards between finance and supply chain management?

thanks you so much and appreciate your help.
