Salaries for sales and marketing roles growing

Recent analyses by the nation’s leading online recruitment site JobNet.com.mm of new position postings and jobs filled, reveals that career opportunities in sales and marketing are growing fast, with salaries in those professions also showing an increase across all levels of experience.

Jobnet’s VP of Sales, Zin Mar said, “Our data shows that in 2017, 32% of all jobs posted by employers were in the sales and marketing professions. So far in 2018, this has increased to 35%. Entry level sales and marketing positions also increased throughout 2017, and this trend is continuing into 2018.”

JobNet’s MD, Matt De Luca said,” Companies with plans for expansion typically look for sales and marketing people to support their growth. One sign that competition is heating up in this area is the increase in salaries being offered.  We predict that sales and marketing salaries could increase by between 20% and 28% during 2018.

Based on analyses of JobNet.com.mm data collected between January 2017 and March 2018.
