In South Africa, the demand for skilled engineering management professionals continues to grow across various industries.

Generally, this entails working closely with cross-functional teams, including engineers, designers, and project managers.
Engineering management positions in South Africa typically command broad salary ranges, often falling between R500 000 to R1 million per annum for entry-level roles, increasing to around R800 000 to R2 million for more senior positions. However, it’s essential to note that actual salaries can vary significantly depending on factors such as experience, company size, and industry sector.
