Following the huge success of the 2007 Defence Salary Survey, Kinetic Recruitment officially launched the 2009 edition at this year’s Avalon Airshow.

The results at a glance:

• The Defence sector has not been immune to the effects of an ageing population. There has been a decline in professionals with more than 16 years experience over the past two years and a surge of individuals with 6 to 15 years experience.
  
  
• Salary sacrifice remains the most widely offered additional benefit in the Defence sector.
  
  
• On average salaries have increased by:
  
  
  NSW 4.43%
  QLD 6.40%
  VIC 4.67%
  SA 7.82%
