How Much Should A Warehouse Manager Get Paid As Salary? by sinorte: 3:42pm On Oct 15, 2015
My friend, Adams, was quite happy when he got a job as a Warehouse Manager. The pay was sure an upgrade on his previous salary.

However, couple of months into the job and Adams started complaining he is not being paid well by his company. He discovers he earns less compared to other managers, even compared to those with less important portfolios. One of his strongest arguments has been that he is not being well enough in contrast to the value of goods he manages (this could run into an average of 20million naira monthly). Meanwhile, he is also well involved in the company's logistics activities.

My own question is this: should warehouse managers be ever paid based on the value of goods they administer? Or how do you think the salaries of warehouse managers should be scaled?

Thank you for your honest contributions.

But you wouldn't sure advise him to resign until he has an alternative, and the company refuses to increase his pay. But the guy could be right in his argument. The pay should in a way commensurate with the worth of the service.

Ok

- His salary should be scaled like any other functional head/ department eg. sales, accounts, production etc

- is there an appraisal or review period in his employ?

- how did he secure the job in the first place? Was he picked from the street or through competitive system. Who interviewed him? Male or female?

- what are his experiences (work and academic)?

- he can make money with the logistics of the company depending on his level of authorisation?

- a stock value of N20mil per month is nothing compared to warehouses of most beverage, IT, construction companies etc. I presume this is a puff-puff or bottled water warehouse.

-he has a choice to quit as we have a new government that would create sustainable jobs.

Re: How Much Should A Warehouse Manager Get Paid As Salary? by Zanaij: 6:13pm On Oct 15, 2015
No Idea Of Precised Salary For such post but it is appropriate if it is not based on the quantity or cost of goods in the warehouse.

Firstly, does he have any tertiary education qualification?
Secondly, how many years experience does he possess?
Thirdly, does he have any warehouse, inventory, Sully chain, logistics or records training or certifications?
Fourthly, those other managers he is comparing himself with what are their experience and longevity in service with the company?
He could just be on a junior manager in the company. Let him do his findings properly as there could be a company policy which makes the salary disparity this way.
Unless he gets something better, he should stick his ass there and keep building his experience for a better future.

The truth behind working as a warehouse manager or executive is that, they are hardly among the rank and file mangers or executives of that same company.

The job of a warehouse manager is one of the least paid job (if not the least paid).

From my experience, the man should take the pay, get experience of the business the company is into and establish himself along that line.

God bless you jare. Imagine that guy has the chance to manage cash. His entitlement mentality and ojukokoro could make him start stealing your money. Believing he makes so much money for you yet gets peanuts. He won't fathom the 35% interest rate you service on your loan and the collateral you risk. Na wa for people o. Whatever happened to resigning.
