Written by My Office News on . Posted in Local News, News. Leave a Comment

MyBroadband conducted its latest salary survey in January 2016, aimed at establishing the average salaries of IT and telecommunications professionals in South Africa.

The salary survey was completed by 2,386 IT and telecommunications professionals across SA.

The survey revealed that the average basic monthly IT and telecoms salary in South Africa is R35,184, up from R33,067 a year ago.

This overall average salary, however, is not of much value to employees who want to see how their pay packages compare to their peers’ salaries.

To accurately compare salaries, factors like fields of expertise, experience, and seniority must be taken into account.

The table below provides an overview of the average salaries of IT professionals, based on job description and experience.
