Financial Standard
|July 28, 2025
Financial services employees saw their pay packets rise 12% in the last 12 months, according to Hay's annual Salary Guide, outpacing salary growth for lawyers and technology professionals.
-
After canvassing more than 12,000 employees from Australia and New Zealand, Hays found that the financial services sector led the pack in terms of salary growth during FY25-26.
The construction (11.7%), IT and tech system design (9.6%), legal (7.8%) and mining (6.9%) sectors also reported strong salary growth.
Such industries are most likely to offer massive salary increases of 20% or more, particularly in hard-to-fill or highly specialised roles.
