Working in "social responsibility" may sound like a no-pay, hippie-type job, but it's actually a pretty sweet gig. After all, this is a corporate management position. That means you're a senior- or executive-level individual. You oversee a team, develop a program, coordinate with other teams both inside and outside your organization, and generally make sure the company feels all the feelings that need to be felt.
All of that is a lot of work (even for the right person), and it takes quite a bit of training, education, and expertise to even work up to the position to begin with. When you finally make it to the upper levels, you should expect upper-level pay, to the tune of over $100,000 (source).
Besides experience, the biggest factor in your salary is the type of company you work for. Since basically all businesses, government agencies, NGOs, and universities want to look caring and sensitive, there should be a variety of job opportunities available.
The best-paying jobs tend to come in sectors like natural resources (oil and other energy companies), industrial (General Electric and other major manufacturers), and telecommunications (AT&T, Verizon, and whomever they haven't bought yet). Each of these business fields will require full-time people who can run a large staff, coordinate policies around the world, and deal with issues from how drilling in the Arctic will affect wildlife to whether the government should get to see your Snapchats.
On the other end of the spectrum are the jobs where you won't make as much money, but you also won't have to work as hard. Careers in areas like support services and recreational activities are pretty fun and interesting too, but in those roles you'll have to be satisfied with $70,000-$80,000, a smaller team, and a much less crisis-focused work environment. Tough, right?
