In Australia, a full time Stockbroker generally earns $1,155 per week ($60,060 annual salary) before tax. This is a median figure for full-time employees and should be considered a guide only. As you gain more experience you can expect a potentially higher salary than people who are new to the industry.
The number of people working in this industry has decreased in recent years. There are currently 4,300 people employed as a Stockbroker in Australia, compared to 5,800 five years ago. Stockbrokers may find work across all regions of Australia, particularly in larger towns and cities.
