Some of the highest-paying roles in this field are the logistics and supply chain manager positions which cap out somewhere around the 100k mark. After getting some years of experience, becoming a consultant or starting your own distribution company are a couple of ways for you to maximize your earnings

I would say that you don’t necessarily need years of experience to get into SC consulting at B4. In fact, I know many of sc consultants join right outta college

There are many lucrative positions within the supply chain field. Some of the most common and well-paying positions include purchasing manager, logistics manager, and distribution manager. These positions typically require a bachelor's degree in business or a related field, as well as several years of experience in the field.

This job is a lot better if you don't care about the bonus and hours requirement. I can pretty easily bill 1700 hours annually and my firm so far hasn't cared in the slightest. Worrying about hitting 2000 hours for the bonus used stress me out so much, and I just don't think it's worth it. Base salaries are ridiculous and way more than enough to finance my lifestyle.
