¼ $ MILLION a year for 40 hours a week. You now work in Construction!
Google and Facebook are paying Project Schedulers $250,000 per year for a 9-5 job.
In Australia you will get ¼ $million.
In the UK you will get ¼ $million.
And in the Middle East. Well. You can get half a $million per year.
Normal, go-home-to-your-family-each-day, have weekends off, 9-5 jobs.

Okay, that’s clearly the top. But what about middle and starting salaries? It can’t all be that high.
Let me amaze you.
A good scheduler progressing up earns between $100K - $200K per year, regardless of if they are in Europe, America or Australia.
And the most basic, entry level, I’m-learning-what-a-schedule-is scheduler starts on between $50K-$80K.
Let’s put this in perspective.
In the US the average wage is $54K, and to get into the top 10% you need $173K.
This means that the second you start, you’re earning more than 50% of the population. And when you get to the midpoint you’re in the top 10%.
The same is true in the UK.
The average wage in 2022 was £33K, and to get into the top 10% you need £62K.
In the UK, by the time you are mid-point in the profession you are quickly heading towards being in the top 1% of earners.
How is such a high salary justified?
Two reasons. It’s a rare skill set, and you can make a decision in a day that saves a project millions.
Massive impact + shortage = high wages.
How can a scheduler save millions in a day?
Schedulers are responsible for time on projects, and as we all know time is money.
Let me demonstrate with numbers.
On a $billion project over 4 years, the Director is spending on average $1 million a day (250 working days in a year).
Of that $1M, approximately $200K will be running costs, so for every day you shorten you will instantly save $200K in costs.
And on top of that the project will be delivering something valuable. Getting that valuable thing a day sooner - such as a Data Centre to process data, or a Solar Farm to make electricity - makes money.
And on top of that, doing the project faster reduces risk, and delays, and disruption and litigation, and financing, and … the list goes on.
In fact, it’s pretty easy for each day on a $billion project to be worth more than $1M.
So it’s pretty simple. Figure out a way to do things 1 day faster across 4 years, and you save $1M. That’s paid your $250K salary for all 4 years.
Now do it again and save 2 days, and you’ve made the project money.
Do it a third time and you’re a superstar.
That sounds complicated. I’m guessing you need a PhD to be a Scheduler?
No. You need to have graduated high-school.
A bachelor's degree will help, but it isn’t necessary.
You simply need to be curious, logical, open to learn, polite and dedicated.
You need to ask people questions and figure out with them how to go faster.
It must be hard to get such an amazing job…
No. The world has a complete shortage of good schedulers.
It’s amazing. The problem is that no-one knows about it.
And even people in the profession aren’t totally aware of the opportunities available.
