Here are ballpark figures and what affects them.

Typical U.S. averages (approximate, 2023–2024 data):
- Median / typical base pay: about $95,000–$110,000 per year.
- Range by experience:
- Entry-level / Assistant: $60,000–$80,000
- Mid-level manager: $85,000–$125,000
- Senior manager / head of supply chain: $120,000–$180,000+
- Total comp (bonuses, profit share, stock): can add ~5–20% (higher at larger companies).

Texas (approximate):
- Texas average is similar to the national average, usually a little under or roughly equal depending on city: about $90,000–$110,000.
- Metro differences: Dallas–Fort Worth, Houston and Austin tend to pay at or above the Texas average; smaller Texas cities tend to be lower.

Factors that change pay:
- Industry (high-paying: pharmaceuticals, oil & gas, high-tech; lower-paying: smaller retail or local distribution)
- Company size and revenue
- Specific role scope (end-to-end supply chain, procurement-only, logistics-only)
- Years of experience and leadership level
- Certifications (CSCP, CPIM, CPSM) and advanced degrees (MBA)
- Location / cost of living

If you want precise current numbers for a city (e.g., Dallas, Houston, Austin) or for a specific experience level, tell me the city and years of experience and I’ll give a tighter estimate and typical total-comp range. If you’d like, I can also point you to specific salary pages (Glassdoor, Payscale, LinkedIn, BLS) to check live data.
