The U.S. Department of Labor (SOL) does not have specific data for directors of corporate sponsorship or sponsorship managers. However, some of their work is similar to that which is done by advertising and promotions managers, as well as by public relations and fundraising managers.

The DOL reports that advertising and promotions managers earned annual median salaries of $117,130 in May 2018, with earnings ranging from $57,150 to $163,370. Public relations and fundraising managers earned median salaries of $114,800. Ten percent earned less than $64,250, and 25 percent earned $158,760 or more.

Salaries for corporate sponsorship positions are higher at large corporations, and more consistent with the income levels of corporate executives. The salaries of those in the nonprofit sector are lower, reflecting the smaller annual budgets of nonprofit organizations and the greater need for public accountability of charitable funds. In both the public and private sector, salary and income are commensurate with an individual’s experience.

Most directors receive benefits such as health insurance, sick leave, paid holidays, retirement plans, and savings plans.
