How much do top managers earn in retail Angelica Tikhonova 2018-08-01 http://site/upload/resize_cache/iblock/2ae/2560_1200_1/2ae74d25975ccf0758c98ee698bf94dc.jpgOver the past couple of years, it has become more difficult for top managers to make money in retail. In addition, their income is highly dependent on geography. For example, the earnings of the general director of the network range from 500 thousand to 1 million rubles per month or more.
Top positions in retail include positions that directly affect key retail indicators, reminds Inna Egorova, head of TOP-Recruiting. Aleksey Dvornik, Managing Partner at HR Solutions, adds that top-level managers determine the company's development strategy and form an operating model, as well as a system of indicators characterizing the effectiveness of the implemented model. Ilya Potapenko, partner at the Odgers Berndtson recruiting company, clarifies that we are talking about the general director (or chief executive officer) and the management line under him: commercial director, director of operations, development (real estate), marketing, finance, strategy, HR, IT , logistics, legal support, security. “In large companies, directors for their own production, for working with big data, and others can be added to this list,” he lists. “Company structures in retail are rarely repeated, so job titles and their systemic arrangement may differ slightly,” reminds Aleksey Dvornik.
Finding out how much top managers earn on average by researching open positions is not easy. “The spread can be very large,” explains Natalia Danina, HeadHunter's HeadHunter Analytical Business Solutions Department Director. - Many factors should be taken into account, including the scale and turnover of the company, specialization and much more. In open vacancies, specific amounts are often not prescribed at all, and the issue of compensation is discussed individually with successful candidates. Since a significant share of the salary of the same sales director is variable, the level of earnings announced in job offers may not reflect the real income of the head.
Complicate the calculation and features of doing business in Western and Russian companies. In Western companies, as a rule, they strictly adhere to the budget framework, that is, the amount of remuneration is the same for any worthy candidate, while in domestic companies, a good candidate can be offered special conditions, says Ekaterina Petrova, head of the ANCOR Consumer Goods recruiting consultants group (personnel holding " ANCOR"). Tops with successful experience in solving specific problems can be offered a salary that is even 2 times higher than the current one, she clarifies. Westerners don't do that.
“There is practically no clear system of motivation and promotion in Russian companies. Do not forget to add bureaucracy and undercover games to this. At the same time, it is fair to say that retail is one of the most advanced and technologically advanced industries in Russia, perhaps, after telecom,” says Arina Egorova, co-founder of the Topexpert expert search marketplace.
Aleksey Dvornik agrees: what salary will be given to a top manager is influenced by his previous achievements, reputation, and the rest is determined by the range of tasks and capabilities of the company that invites the head. In general, according to him, the role of a personal brand in retail is especially strongly felt. “Since everything happens in plain sight in retail, the top manager who even subjectively achieved the set goals and brought the employer company to an agreed level of performance may be more interesting to the market than a lesser-known top. And the employer will be more willing to fulfill his expectations regarding the compensation package,” says Aleksey Dvornik. “A personal brand is certainly important, and it is formed mainly due to specific professional achievements,” Ilya Potapenko supports his colleague. - Look at the recent exchange of tops in the two largest market players (we are talking about personnel changes in X5 Retail Group and Magnit in the spring and summer of 2018. - Ed.). Obviously, hiring a CEO with a big name (and a powerful personal brand) is more expensive. But this director also sets higher expectations.”
What is the income
According to Ekaterina Petrova, the income of tops, as a rule, is formed from a fixed part and a variable part. “The variable is tied to a KPI,” she explains. - Each leader can have their own indicators. For example, for the commercial department - this is a commodity balance, for the head of the sales department - access to the sales plan. According to her, in some companies the number of indicators can reach 10, but these cases are rather rare. Usually they do not exceed four. Tasks are set for a year, and, accordingly, a bonus is paid for the same time. “We are talking about at least 25% of the annual salary,” says Ekaterina Petrova. - The bonus can be paid out at the end of six months. I am not familiar with the practice of payments based on the results of the quarter, this is very, very rare.”
According to Ilya Potapenko, in the largest companies in the industry, annual bonuses can reach up to 100% of the fixed part. “The main feature, in my opinion, is the LTI (long term incentive program, long-term incentive program) - usually such programs are tied to the achievement of a super-task, for example, market leadership, and amount to millions, and sometimes tens of millions of dollars,” the expert explains.
In many companies, executives are additionally compensated for the costs of mobile communications, medical care, car use, etc. In the general structure of income, salary can be 50%, salary increments - 30%, quarterly and annual bonuses - 10% each, says Inna Kuznetsova, head of a separate division of Coleman Services in Yekaterinburg.
different money
According to the obzorzarplat.ru project of the ANT-Management company, it can be seen that top incomes vary significantly depending on the region.
Revenues of top managers in retail trade
at the end of the first half of 2018, rubles per month after taxes
Natalya Danina says that the difference can reach 40-50%. “So, the largest salary in the first half of the year on hh.ru was offered to the CEO of a federal retail company - 2 million rubles, and the income consisted of a fixed salary and key KPI’s (EBITDA, ROI), - the hh.ru expert cites the numbers. - In Yekaterinburg, in the conditional salary rating, the vacancy of a financial director was in the lead, who could count on an income of 300 thousand to 500 thousand rubles; in Kazan - the general director with a salary of 250 thousand rubles; in Rostov-on-Don, they closed the position of sales director with the specified remuneration in the amount of 250 thousand rubles.
Elena Telichko, head of a separate subdivision of Coleman Services in Novosibirsk, explains the low income of tops in comparison with the capital, for example, in the Siberian Federal District, by the level of development of retail in the region. “According to statistics, the highest concentration of supermarkets is in Moscow - 49.8% and St. Petersburg - 41.3%. Retail in Siberia, and these are Novosibirsk and Krasnoyarsk, respectively, with 24.7% and 18.3%, is at an average level of development, - says Elena Telichko. - Up to 80% of companies in the Siberian Federal District are currently experiencing a shortage of personnel. There is little competition, it affects the income.” However, according to her, there is a movement of federal networks to the east. Large retail chains open distribution centers in the region, buy up local retail chains, creating a large number of jobs. “Specialists who develop the so-called smart shopping, or off-price, are popular among employers,” says Elena Telichko. “Recently, the representative of such retail in the Russian Federation, the federal chain Familia, posted announcements for the recruitment of heads of divisions and regions, store directors and their deputies, buyers, purchasing specialists, financial managers, store employees, cashiers.” That gives hope for increased competition and higher incomes.
“Of course, the federal level implies more responsibility and specificity, respectively, the income of top managers of federal companies is higher,” Alexei Dvornik explains the difference in incomes of metropolitan and regional top managers. - Federal companies use a modern structured approach to the motivation system. Often, top bonuses are tied to turnover or EBITDA, and tools such as options and other approaches can be used. Regional specificity is often reflected in the personality of the owner: how much he/she/they are willing to pay for the work of tops and advanced in matters of motivation of their employees. The opportunity to get a share in a business, in my opinion, is higher in a regional retail than in a federal company.”
Ilya Potapenko agrees that, in general, incomes are higher in Moscow and St. Petersburg. “I think that the regionals do not receive huge bonuses,” he clarifies. - But it seems to me that it makes sense to look at the scale of the company, rather than at its belonging to a particular region. There is a well-known retail company in the south of the country that pays no less, but for most positions even more than in Moscow.”
Calmchange
Over the past few years, the income of top managers in retail has not changed much, experts say. “In the last 3-4 years, I have not noticed a dramatic change in the structure of compensation,” Ilya Potapenko assures. Ekaterina Petrova believes that due to the difficult economic situation that began in 2014, today there is stagnation in the level of income. True, this has its advantages. “On the one hand, the labor market in the retail sector is “marking time”, on the other hand, there is a move away from the overheating of top incomes, which was before 2014, and the achievement of a balance of supply and demand,” Ekaterina is sure.
Alexey Dvornik supports his colleagues in the fact that there have not been any special changes. “After the imposition of sanctions, grocery retailers are faced with the fact that the number of SKUs on the trading floor has decreased, as Russian manufacturers cannot provide a full-fledged replacement for many goods from abroad. This situation has prompted many retailers to make changes in the organization of sales areas in order not to scare away and attract the consumer. Many retailers, faced with the current economic situation, have reduced rental costs by entering into a direct and serious dialogue with landlords. Shareholders and owners of retail companies are currently not interested in saving on compensation packages for top managers, but rather in their business continuing to develop or keep up to date,” says Alexey Dvornik.
Another thing is that it has become more difficult for top managers to earn. According to Natalia Danina, in pursuit of improving business efficiency and labor productivity, many companies are complicating incentive schemes.
The tendency to use an end-to-end motivation system is growing, when the top manager and all his subordinates have the same indicator to which the bonus is tied, only the area of responsibility changes, for example, sales in Russia - sales in the federal district - sales in the city - sales in bush of stores - sales of one store, Inna Egorova clarifies.
“The tops began to focus primarily on annual bonuses,” she says. - In large networks, they make up from 80 to 100% of annual income. And people are ready to wait, but to receive a large sum at once.”
“It has become harder to achieve the indicators required by the owners,” summarizes Ekaterina Petrova. But, according to Arina Egorova, retail is an industry where, having worked in which you can go anywhere: to the automotive industry (to dealers), to real estate (to create new products there), to pharmaceuticals, media, IT, etc. “And we are talking not only about traditionally cross-industrial functions such as finance, HR, legal. I also mean sales and marketing. The last two functions are, in my experience, the most specific, and moving marketers and salespeople from industry to industry is much more difficult,” she says.
Mikhail Skorokhod, President of Eurocement GroupAge: 41
Marital status: single
Education: In 1990, he graduated from the Donetsk Polytechnic Institute, and in 1993, he completed his postgraduate studies at the Moscow Mining Institute, receiving the degree of Candidate of Technical Sciences. The degree of doctor of economic sciences was received at the Academy of Labor and Social Relations. Professor of Economics and Management
Career:
Since March 1998 - CJSC Rosuglesbyt Company, Head of the Property Accounting and Asset Management Department, Deputy Director for Strategic Development, Head of the Strategic Development and Asset Management Department, Vice President, Executive Director
In 2001 – Chief of Staff of Rosuglesbyt Company OJSC, Executive Director
Since April 2002 - First Vice-President of CJSC Rosuglesbyt Company
Since July 2002 - President of JSC "Sterncement"
In November 2002 - President of OJSC "Eurocement"
From November 2004 to the present time - President of JSC "Eurocement group"
Skorokhod began his professional career in 1994 at the Russian Coal Company OJSC (Rosugol) as a leading economist. And he came to Eurocement after five years of work in senior positions in Rosuglesbyt and Sterncement, on the basis of whose assets the largest Russian cement company was created.
The secret of his success as a manager is that the doctor of economic sciences Skorokhod backs up every decision with careful calculations. To speed up this process, a production automation system was introduced in 2005-2006: information about the movement of cement in the company - from the extraction of raw materials to the final shipment - is now reflected at all plants online with an accuracy of a kilogram.
According to knowledgeable people, it was the scrupulousness, strictness in handling numbers that helped Skorokhod to effectively cope with the tasks facing Eurocement. Having barely taken office, Skorokhod set about implementing a program for the technical re-equipment of the enterprise, operating with a total budget of $560 million. Investments in modernization and the purchase of new facilities made it possible to increase production volumes: in 2005, the holding produced 22.5 million tons of cement against 2004 And in 2006, Eurocement Group JSC took 37th place in the ranking of the most expensive Russian companies, according to Forbes magazine. The capitalization of the holding, according to this rating, is 123.4 billion rubles. ($4.6 billion).
However, as often happens, rigidity and interest in numbers sometimes turn into insufficient attention to the human factor. It seems that this is also true for Mikhail Skorokhod: he is characterized as not the most diplomatic negotiator. It is possible that it was precisely for this reason that he was not always able to timely resolve various kinds of conflicts, in particular those that arose in the last two years: with the Federal Antimonopoly Service and the American shareholders of the company.

His reputation as an authoritarian leader has made him a target for critics.

The golden rule of management: find a reasonable balance between the concentration of powers and their delegation
Former submarine officer Alexander Goncharuk is one of the most controversial figures among the top managers of Russian telecommunications companies. Goncharuk's supporters speak of his energy and charisma, grasp and attention to detail, while opponents criticize him for authoritarianism and harshness. It is also said that under his vigilant supervision it is impossible to steal. For a decade and a half, Goncharuk has gone through all the steps of the career ladder: from the general director of the Leader insurance company (the granddaughter of Sistema) to the president of the corporation.
Goncharuk knows how to deal with external enemies. When he was president of Sistema Telecom (AFK's telecommunications division), he gained control of MGTS, ousted some of the "objectionable" shareholders from MTS, and in four years knocked together many heterogeneous companies bought by Sistema into a single conglomerate.
He also knows how to deal with objectionable people within the company: for example, having headed the electronic division of Sistema - Concern Scientific Center (now Sitronics), Goncharuk replaced 45 top managers. The third "horse" Goncharuk - geographical expansion. On his initiative, the leading Ukrainian IT company Kvazar-Micro and the Czech manufacturer of telecommunications equipment Strom Telecom were bought. Largely due to these acquisitions, Sitronics' turnover increased more than tenfold in two years.
And in early 2006, Goncharuk became the chief architect of the restructuring of the entire AFK Sistema. The rapid growth of the company made it difficult to manage, and there was a need to optimize the management system, clear the ranks of inefficient employees. It's a common thing, but also much more responsible. “If in Sitronics or in Sistema Telecom it was at least theoretically possible to make a mistake, now it is out of the question,” says Alexander Goncharuk. So far, it works without errors.

The golden rule of management: the ability to listen - when you hear the interlocutor, it is easy for you to make decisions
Dmitry Levin calls the problems that Russian Standard encountered at different times as growing pains. In 2002–2003, the bank had difficulty financing a rapidly growing business. “Customer needs grew faster than the bank's financial capacity,” recalls Dmitry Levin. He personally engaged in building a policy to attract resources: investor relations, a strategy for working in financial markets. To date, the volume of attracted funds of the bank is about $5 billion.
Around the same time, the bank made a serious strategic miscalculation. “In 2003, we paid too much attention to servicing our clients through the offices of other banks,” recalls the CEO of Russian Standard. “But when one shop at the factory is not yours, failures begin.” From that situation, Levin deduced the iron principle “do not give your clients to other structures” and began to develop his own network. He managed to turn the bank from a purely Moscow into a federal one, without buying regional players. Now the bank has about 130 branches in various regions, by the end of the year Dmitry Levin plans to increase their number to 280.
“We managed to create a bank that is the industry leader and can quite successfully compete with foreign banks,” Dmitry Levin is proud. And he immediately admits what has not yet been done - to form a loyal client base of Russian Standard. This is what Levin is going to do in 2007, forming a powerful product line of credit cards, offering new programs in consumer and auto loans. As for the requirements of the Central Bank to disclose the effective rate on loans, which the regulator has been introducing since July 2007, Dmitry Levin does not see any special problems for business with its introduction. “We will start declaring it as soon as possible,” he promises.

The golden rule of management is to be adequate to the prevailing circumstances and fair to people.
“In order to convince people to buy a bottle of soda, they still need to create such a need in them,” says Vladislav Paulus. The manager knows a lot about this: the leader of the rating SF in the oil industry he had a hand in building the Coca-Cola empire in Russia. For almost ten years, he launched factories and trade branches of the company in different parts of the country.
In the early 2000s, Yukos shareholders decided to radically change the system for selling their petroleum products in Russia. They were looking for someone with Western experience and a fresh outlook. The choice fell on the "coca-kolschik" Paulus. When faced with the oil industry for the first time, the manager was horrified: “It was a real Soviet collective farm.” First of all, Paulus created a centralized pricing system - earlier, the divisions of the oil company independently determined selling prices. Moreover, he allowed managers to spend their excess earnings on their own bonuses. As a result, in the first six months, Paulus earned $300 million for Yukos in addition to the previous volumes and took the post of vice president.
When Khodorkovsky's company began to collapse under the pressure of the state, Oleg Deripaska invited the manager to lead a new oil project that the businessman is creating around the Afipsky refinery. And here Paulus used the strategy from FMCG. He modernized production, increased the number of channels for the supply of petroleum products, and then got rid of intermediaries in ports. As a result, the company's turnover grew from $350 million in 2005 to $1 billion in 2006. And this is just the beginning: Deripaska planned to create a vertically integrated holding a la RussNeft. Paulus has already bought a number of promising fields, and is looking at others. It turned out that extracting oil is no more difficult than building soft drink factories.

The golden rule of management: if you can’t, but really want to, then you can
Evgeny Chichvarkin in 2004, he invited the commercial director of Sonic Duo to establish an "autopilot" in the company. The founder of Euroset used to manage both the machine and the business manually, but the turnover of $ 320 million forced him to think about business processes. The creation of the structure became the task of the manager.
“The company was like a partisan detachment that broke through behind enemy lines,” Razroev recalls. “The business grew quickly, the wheels were changed on the go.” Not everything has changed yet, but Chichvarkin is already pleased with the course of affairs. “Razroev thinks deeply about his thoughts, experience sticks to him, he is cheerful and evil,” says the founder of Euroset. “For him there is no word“ no ”: the harder it is, the better for him.”
The president of the company felt extremely good not only when he "combed" the guerrilla company before a possible IPO, but also when working on another project - the creation of an MVNO. “We offered the Big Three operators to buy traffic from them, and they asked how we were going to position ourselves,” Razroev recalls. “It became clear that people live in the astral plane.” Managers of SMARTS live in real life, with the help of which Euroset recently became a virtual mobile operator. Now Razroev prophesies an apocalypse for the current leaders of telecom, as engineering companies cannot compete with marketing “virtuals”. “This is a virus,” Chichvarkin echoes. “And we opened the test tube.”
Razroev wanted to “open a test tube” back in Megafon. After the virtual project is fully operational and the company becomes public, it will be possible to take a break. “You can’t breathe in all the time, you have to breathe out sometimes,” he says. The president of Euroset already knows what to do "on the exhale": he has a patent for neutrino elementary particle detectors. “If you build a connection on these particles, it will be limitless,” Razroev dreams. “Then the signal can be received even underground, even in space.”
FOCUSED MARKETING

The golden rule of management: build a team that knows everything about today's and future consumers
Guessing preferences Henrik Nenzen, who previously worked as a brand manager for Ford Focus in Europe, has learned to perfection. Focusing on the target audience of former Zhiguli owners and used foreign cars, he offered her the right price - about $15,000 for a new complete car. In addition, Nenzen stimulated the proposal with a profitable loan program: today the same Ford Focus can be bought at 4.9% per annum, the initial payment is 40%, that is, approximately equal to the cost of AvtoVAZ cars, which, according to analysts, is by no means accidental.
As a result, according to the results of recent years, foreign Ford cars are the best-selling in Russia (in 2006, almost 116,000 of them were sold). But the marketing genius of Henrik Nenzen to some extent surpassed his talents as a production manager. Demand for Ford is so great that buyers have to wait for cars for six months, while for other foreign manufacturers this process usually takes two to three months.
Colleagues are becoming more and more of a problem for the Swedish manager. The success of Ford in Russia was largely due to the fact that he was the first to open his production here. But now other European and Asian auto giants have announced similar plans. Thus, in order to hold the palm, Henrik Nenzen will have to think about expanding production capacity. And this will obviously require a solid investment from the parent company, which is not doing flawlessly: the net losses of Ford Motor Co. in 2006 amounted to $12.7 billion.
However, one of his strengths that help him in his work, Henrik Nenzen calls "the ability to explain to the parent organization in Europe what actions are required in the local market." And he has a serious argument: according to expert estimates, the turnover of the Russian division in 2006 increased by 38%.

Golden rule of management: do not rush to make the wrong decision
The question of a profession for Pivovarov was resolved long ago. He was born in the family of a military pilot, spent his childhood in a military town near Zaporozhye and always dreamed of following in his father's footsteps. “Serving in the army was prestigious back then,” recalls Gennady Pivovarov, “and even more so in the Air Force.” Already at the age of 33, he became deputy commander of a transport aviation regiment, the air fleet of which consisted of the largest aircraft in the world - the An-124 Ruslan. However, six years later, his military career ended: he was laid off.
What to do next? “I didn’t have any special options,” explains the general director of Volga-Dnepr. “There are only three airlines operating Ruslans (the Russian Volga-Dnepr and Polet and the Ukrainian Antonov ASTC.– SF), but I didn’t want to leave transport aviation.”
The main business of Volga-Dnepr is charter flights on the An-124. But three years ago, the company began to develop regular cargo flights on Boeing aircraft. For a year and a half (since April 2005) as CEO, Pivovarov was able to make a new line of business profitable. If in 2005 Boeing flights were subsidized by Ruslan charters, then last year there was a profit: the plan for regular flights was exceeded by 50%, and the total turnover of Volga-Dnepr increased by 55% to $ 725 million .
“The secret of his success is his excellent knowledge of technology and experience in managing people in high-risk conditions,” says Volga-Dnepr President Alexey Isaikin. The CEO has an authoritarian management style, but he helps his subordinates grow. When a top manager leaves the company, they do not look for a replacement on the side. “We are growing new leaders within the company,” says the CEO.
And Gennady Pivovarov himself is not looking for options on the side. "Headhunters, please don't worry," he chuckles. In the end, he devoted half his life to transport aviation.

Forbes first published the rating of the highest paid top managers in Russia in 2012 . Then Andrei Kostin became its leader, whose remuneration for the previous year was estimated at $30 million. VTB did not agree with the assessment: a statement was published on the bank's website, in which the assessment was called "literally from the ceiling." “According to the issuer's report for 2011, the entire board of VTB Bank, which is headed by Kostin, received almost 608 million rubles. According to the logic of Forbes, apparently, members of the VTB board are forced to pay extra for the honor of working in the same team with Kostin, ”VTB said in a statement.
The second rating of top managers was headed by Igor Sechin, whose remuneration was then estimated by Forbes at $50 million (taking into account the premium that a top manager could receive for the acquisition of TNK-BP by Rosneft). Sechin in court, and he recognized the assessment as untrue and discrediting the honor and dignity of a top manager, Forbes refute it.
When compiling the rating, Forbes limited the circle of potential participants to the 70 largest companies by revenue in 2015, excluding state corporations and companies managed by owners. In most cases, remuneration estimates are calculated based on the total compensation paid to key management companies in 2015. The estimate takes into account such types of remuneration as short-term (salary, bonuses and other types of remuneration), long-term (share-based payments) and received from participation in boards of directors of subsidiaries. Forbes also included bonuses for 2014 that were paid in 2015 and did not include bonuses for 2015 that were paid in 2016.
Forbes has published its latest rating of the highest paid top managers in Russia. This rating has been published for five years.
