Reasonable is 100,000 for Thailand in 2023; however, the offer will not be reasonable. Expect anywhere from 25,000 to maybe 40,000. Harvard or blah blah school in nowhere land gets the same wage. If you are from a “Top 5 school in Europe” I would hope you can figure out Thailand is one of the WORST places on Earth to make money if you are a farang.
Thanks for the advice - though, if I really wanted to make big bucks, I would've stayed Switzerland (where the average salary for a PhD is over 140K Euros...). I will, however, like you said, manage my expectations.

Thanks for the tip. Will take a look around ????.

However Europe [even top 5] is not English speaking land, right?A PhD in Management is basically a business PhD. We can research anything from corporate strategy, ecosystems....to HR practises, for example.
All PhDs from well-known schools are taught in English. But regardless, I am from North America (but look Asian).

In fact, most foreigners in Thai universities can't really publish. They're hired because they speak English and have a credential. Few manage to publish in Q1 journals at all. So if you don't want to publish either, you'll fit right in.
I want to publish, just not sure if I want to spend so much time trying to get into A journals ;).
Are there any websites I can be looking at to find these opportunities?

Hi all,
Long time lurker, but finally made an accout to post!
I will be graduating as a PhD in Management from a top 5 school in Europe soon, and unlike my other colleagues, I would not want a stressful academic career... Instead, I want to move to Thailand!
Any experiences to share? How much salary am I expecting? Old posts suggests base of 60K + teaching + housing... would that be in line with my experiences?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: have ±5 years of working experience across Fortune 500s

What is a reasonable salary for lecturer at private university in Bangkok?

I don't mean disrespect in any way... but graduates from my school with a PhD in Management teach at top 10 schools in US, top 3 in Canada, and top 5 in Europe... However, if you still think a fancy degree is useless in Thailand, then perhaps I need to consider other options ????.
