This year, the Indonesian National Agency of Civil Servants (BKN) is opening around 295,000 job vacancies for teachers with Government Employee with Work Contract (PPPK) status.
These vacancies originate from approximately 500 regional government institutions (pemda) spread throughout Indonesia.
Of all available PPPK Teacher vacancies, the highest salary offer is given to Petroleum Engineering Teachers.
Petroleum Engineering is one of the subjects taught at Oil and Gas Vocational High Schools (SMK Migas).
Based on data from the official website of the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemdikbud), there are currently around 15 SMK Migas spread across various regions of Indonesia.
In October 2023, the national average minimum salary for a PPPK Petroleum Engineering Teacher vacancy was Rp3.9 million per month, the highest compared to other subject teachers.
