Building and grounds supervisor pay by experience in Indonesia

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for a building and grounds supervisor in Indonesia, ahead of education and almost any other single factor. The longer you have been in the role, the more your employer can trust you to handle complexity, mentor others and act independently, all of which command higher pay. The chart below shows how the typical building and grounds supervisor salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    59,640,200 IDR
  • 2-5 Years

    142,799,100 IDR
  • 20+ Years

Building and grounds supervisor pay by education in Indonesia

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving building and grounds supervisor pay in Indonesia. Higher qualifications consistently pull higher salaries, but the size of the gap tends to be smallest at junior levels and widens as people move up. Two people in the same role with the same years of experience but different degrees can end up earning very different money once they reach mid-career.

Building and grounds supervisor gender pay gap in Indonesia

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Indonesia is no exception. Male building and grounds supervisors in Indonesia earn an average of 111,119,100 IDR a year, while female building and grounds supervisors earn around 98,039,900 IDR. That works out to a 13% gap in favour of men, even when comparing people doing the same work.

A pay gap of this size has a real long-term cost. Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.
