Assuming *you* are the candidate, that would depend on your location, as most remote jobs pay according to local “cost of labor” (I.e. pay is competitive with local competition) Other considerations might include: How many years of experience do you have leading teams? What’s the size of the team you’ll be responsible for? Have you led internal teams or do you only have agency experience? Without knowing any of that info, my advice would be to find a similar posting in NY or California where they are required to post salary ranges, and then subtract between 10-15% depending on where you’re located (if it’s not one of those two locations)
Had own small agency and got big clients before so have experience leading teams and projects there then later was hands lead or manager in the past few years (7 or 8ish?) of in-house contracts. Located in m or mhcol area. Size of team will depend on needs but starting out may be bringing 3 on board to start, we the time is right.
Ok, just to make sure I’m following. You have experiencing a leading small agency and have led in-house teams of up to 7-8 (contractors vs fte), MCOL and spinning up a small team of three. So to me you’ve got the qualifications to lead that team of three but don’t have a *super strong* ten year history of leadership, and without looking at your portfolio, I’ll assume you have led teams to measurable success. The apparel industry pays lower than top tier tech for the most part. So factoring in that and a 10% reduction from Bay Area or NYC jobs as you’re not in a HCOL area, I’d estimate the range at around 150-200k plus benefits, but that’s just my guess.
No mo than tree fiddy
God damn loch ness monsters
not knowing the company, location, or title, I would say 145k -175k. Apparel/ Fashion/Retail does not really pay much. Responsibilities seem massive, but they are not compared to tech, but they do need ppl who understand the tech process well as they won't train. You will have more work-life balance and less stress.
175?? Jesus. I would quit that whole industry. lol that’s even less than traditional finance
You must be confusing with Fintech.... Finance doesn't pay their tech well. Plus I belive one of the big four accounting firms laid off a bunch of their UX people.
