2022 Global BCM Compensation Report

Since 2001, BC Management has been the leading provider of global compensation data for business continuity and disaster recovery professionals.

In this 20th edition report, we not only assess compensation earning potential by years of experience, degree, management and leadership expertise, geography, and certification, but we’ve also included a section analyzing the impacts of COVID-19 and the Great Resignation.  This report highlights compensations for both full-time, permanently employed professionals as well as fixed term/ independent contract consultants.  We were fortunate to receive over 800 respondents from 39 countries and all currencies have been converted to USD for consistency in reporting purposes.
