Now Available: 2022 Salary Data for Southeast Grantmakers
Each year, Philanthropy Southeast partners with the Council on Foundations (COF) to produce salary benchmarking reports for foundation staff and CEOs in the Southeast. These reports include the average, median, minimum and maximum salaries for a range of 36 staff positions at all levels in foundations based in the 11 Southeast states and U.S. Caribbean territories. Salary tables are organized by both grantmaker type and asset size to provide quick access to benchmarking data for foundations of all shapes and sizes.
Salary information for 2022 is drawn from data on more than 10,000 full-time paid staff at over 1,000 grantmaking organizations. The South region accounted for approximately 27 percent of all respondents.
Thank you to all the Philanthropy Southeast member organizations that responded to the 2022 Grantmaker Salary and Benefits Survey earlier this year, providing the valuable benchmarking data that informs these reports.
The 2022 salary tables for Southeast foundations are available exclusively to Philanthropy Southeast members under the For Members section of our web site – you can click this link to access them directly (login required).
As a reminder, organizations that participated in the 2022 Grantmaker Salary and Benefits (GSB) Survey can download the full national report from COF’s Benchmark Central and also access the benchmarking tool to run salary, benefits, and demographics comparisons by asset size, grants, geographic location, and grantmaker type.
In addition to salary figures, the national GSB Report includes data on benefits and incentive compensation for foundation employees, staff tenure and turnover rates, and CEO-specific compensation practices. The 2022 GSB Report also offers a look at board demographics and compensation. Learn more about the 2022 GSB Report here.
If your organization is interested in participating in next year’s study, look for the GSB Survey to open by March 2023.
