Why this one's worth your details

Every number comes from consultants and leaders entering their own quarterly billings through our live calculator. No estimates, no extrapolations, no consultancy padding the numbers to sell you something.

What's inside

01

Where your team sits against the market

Average billings for consultants, senior consultants and team leaders, broken down by sector and state, so you can see exactly where your desk sits against the cohort.

02

The sector lottery

Tech/IT and Executive Search are pulling away at the top. Not-for-profit, Pharma and Property are stuck at the bottom. Sector now explains more of the billings gap than seniority does, worth knowing before you set next quarter’s targets.

03

Four bottlenecks killing growth

Process gaps, panic BD cycles, leadership capability gaps and turnover costs. We break down exactly where each one shows up and what it’s costing you.

04

Salary benchmarks by role and state

What consultants, senior consultants and team leaders are actually being paid right now, and how that stacks up against what they’re billing.

05

Three moves for the next 30 days
