Manufacturing team leader salary
in Switzerland

The benchmark shown is the median for the occupational group ‘Science and engineering associate professionals’: CHF 7’507 gross per month at full-time hours in 2024. This is a group statistic, not a median isolating this occupation alone. Consider duties, responsibilities and employment conditions when comparing an offer.

The calculator lets you select Switzerland as a whole, a major region, a canton or a city. For cities and cantons, the median displayed is that of their FSO major region. The average remains a national benchmark. Selecting a location does not turn these figures into a statistic for that municipality.

The median divides jobs into two halves: one earns less and the other more. The average adds up earnings and divides them by the number of observations. Here, the Eurostat average (2022) covers ‘ISCO major group 3 — technicians and associate professionals, Switzerland’; it should not be compared directly with the FSO median for group 31 (2024).

Amounts are gross. The FSO median is standardised to full-time work of 40 hours a week and includes one twelfth of the 13th-month salary and annual special payments. Its annual equivalent is calculated by multiplying by 12, without adding a 13th month. Net income depends on personal deductions and is not calculated here.

Only the actual responsibilities can establish a useful match. This occupation concerns manufacturing supervision, whereas directing production may include a broader budget, strategy and organisational remit. The family salary reference does not assign the same value to every management title.

This page uses the same official datasets as the main calculator. They are checked automatically each month; the last valid data are retained if a check fails. A recent check does not change the statistical year: surveys publish results according to their own schedules.
