Ever wonder who gets paid the most? Or how much your dentist makes for all the pain they put you through?

We had that same burning desire to know more about the highest paid professions in Wisconsin. And if you can’t tell by that sentence, we’re a bit of what you’d call data nerds.

After the data science team did a thorough analysis of the data, we discovered that Consultant And Sales Representative are the highest paid people in Wisconsin.

Here’s a quick look at the top ten highest paying jobs in Wisconsin:

  1. Consultant And Sales Representative
  2. Staff Physician
  3. Operator And Truck Driver
  4. Vice President, Field Operations
  5. Primary Care Physician
  6. Acute Care Physician
  7. President And General Manager
  8. Director, Product Engineering
  9. Executive Vice President Marketing
  10. Executive Vice President Of Operations

How we determined the highest paid jobs in Wisconsin For 2024

To create our salary estimates, Zippia starts with data published in publicly available sources such as the most recently released data on March 2024 from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Foreign Labor Certification Data Center (FLC), Office of Personnel Management (OPM) and others. The data science team then supplements that data by continuously scanning through millions of job postings each day to find published salaries. We match these published salaries to the companies, locations, and job titles in other datasets. Finally, the data science team calculates a weighted average of these inputs to produce an estimated salary for the particular job title in Wisconsin.

In total, the team looked at the salary data set for all 500 jobs in Wisconsin in order to identify those that get paid the most.
