The Queensland public sector chief executive (QPSCE) remuneration framework applies to public service Chief Executives (CEs) and some statutory entity CEOs on appointment.
On appointment, the Queensland Government negotiates a total remuneration package (TRP) comprising:
- superannuable salary (at 88.69176% of TRP)
- employer contributions to superannuation at 12.75% of superannuable salary.
The superannuable salary includes allowances for an executive vehicle and annual leave loading.
TRP negotiations consider the role’s assessed work value; corresponding package band; and the CE’s (elect) prior experience.
TRP ranges are current from 1 September 2022.
CEO package band | TRP range (per year) |
---|---|
Band 1 (Central agencies) | $682,125–$852,628 |
Band 2 | $610,960–$763,699 |
Band 3 | $473,154–$709,732 |
Band 4 | $371,667–$502,910 |
Band 5 | $290,206–$392,711 |
Band 6 | $210,215–$284,436 |
The remuneration framework aids in standardising the benefits and entitlements for CEs across the sector. Statutory entities are encouraged to transition to the above CE remuneration framework upon appointment of a new CE.
