Your pay rise is not the amount that hits your bank.
Enter your current annual salary, then describe the increase as a percentage, a dollar amount or a target new salary. Compare gross salary with estimated cash take-home after resident income tax, standard individual Medicare levy and optional HELP/STSL.

This compares annual estimates rather than predicting a specific payslip. Copying the result happens locally on your device. The estimate uses resident income tax plus standard individual Medicare levy; HELP/STSL is optional and assumes salary equals repayment income.

Employers describe increases in different ways. The calculator accepts all three common formats and converts them to the same new annual salary before comparing the cash result.
If the increase still leaves you looking, browse reviewed jobs or join the private worker list free. Worker registration is free, and worker phone, email, licence and ticket details are not published in a public worker directory.
Hiring instead? Employers can post a job and use matching free while the network grows. Requests are reviewed before matching, workers choose whether to consent to an introduction, and employers hire and pay workers directly.
