Hello Reader,

๐ From the Top
As we move through Spring 2025, the job market for supply chain professionals continues to show remarkable resilience and growth potential.
Recent data reveals entry-level supply chain analysts now command an average annual salary of $74,386 nationwide, translating to approximately $35.76 per hour.
This represents significant opportunity for newcomers to the field, especially considering the substantial salary range spanning from $59,000 (25th percentile) to $83,500 (75th percentile).
For job seekers, this wide range suggests numerous advancement possibilities based on skills, location, and experienceโmaking now an excellent time to enter or upskill in this dynamic field.
The geographic dimension of supply chain salaries reveals compelling insights for career planning. Top-paying markets like San Francisco and San Jose offer premiums exceeding 27% above the national average, with Oakland following closely at 20.3% higher compensation. This regional variation presents strategic relocation opportunities for ambitious professionals. Meanwhile, career progression data shows dramatic salary growth potential, with analysts gaining just 2-4 years of experience seeing earnings jump to $89k-$136k.

Recent data reveals significant variations in entry-level supply chain coordinator salaries. According to PayScale, the average salary for an entry-level supply chain coordinator with less than 1 year of experience is $47,949. However, other sources provide different figures, highlighting the complexity of salary structures in this field.
The plumbing industry faces a significant skills gap, particularly among entry-level workers. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there will be nearly 43,000 job openings for plumbers, pipefitters, and steamfitters each year through 2032, primarily due to retirements and career changes. This highlights the urgent need for skilled new entrants to the field.
