Best, High paid jobs in Japan

Best/High paid jobs in Japan

In the 2008 version of the Average Annual Income Ranking, as in the previous year, the highest ranking was “Investment Banking”, followed by “Investment Companies (Fund Managers/Analyst Dealers)”. The 3rd ranked occupation, moving up from 4th last year, was “Corporate Planning/Project Planning/New Project Development”.

Among the top 10, financial systems occupied 4 occupational categories. Even separating the rankings by age 25-29 year old, 30-34 year old, and 35-39 year old “Investment Banking” ended up in the 1st place ranking for all of them, and again, the annual income range for the industry as a whole was noticeably high.

Furthermore, in the 2007 ranking, among all three age groups, “Property Manager/Real Estate Professional”, which was then ranked among the top 10, vanished from the 2008 ranking. The situation in the Real Estate market, heavy with stagnation, is reflected in the annual income.

Looking at the regional rankings, the annual incomes in the Tokyo/Nagoya/Osaka area were quite prominent. Additionally, regional differences appear as follows: Kanto, ranked #1, at 4.71 million yen; Kyushu, ranked #7, at 4.26 million with a 450 thousand yen difference.
