How we calculate this

These figures place a HR Manager's pay against percentile bands (p25 to p90) in Singapore. Where national occupation data is thin, we model from regional wage references and label it as such; we never present an estimate as official. Figures are gross annual, rounded.

Where this figure comes from

  • The source publishes a median for this occupation; the remaining percentiles are modelled from it.
  • The source does not publish Top 10% (p90) for this occupation, so those figures are estimated.
