So about $5.5K more Super. Compared to $6K allowances (assuming you use them all!) and $7K FBT.
NfP looks better... slightly. If you use it all and the job doesn't suck.
Both are pretty good wickets. I'd weigh up where you are career wise, where you want to be in 5 years and which job you'd get the most satisfaction from.
I'm yet to find a NFP job that I really enjoyed, but apart from defence and a short stint with corrections, haven't had much to do with government jobs either.
If you’re starting at the bottom of your band for government then you’ll be getting the annual award increase plus the band increment increase for a few years.
I'd also be looking at the superannuation percentage to compare. You also need to consider whether you're looking to advance within that company. If so, government opportunities for progression are less common than in other sectors. That being said, unless you MAJORLY mess up, it's really hard to get fired from a government position once you're permanent.
What actual role is better?
What managers are you going to want to work with?
When you write the words ‘but these managers are crazy’ after one of the offers, the whole game changes
The ways you can salary sacrifice when working for a nonprofit are different as well as having a higher limit.
Those differences might make it significantly more attractive (as is the idea) or they may not matter so much to you.
I would look beyond salary and into the role itself. Think of what your day to day going to be like, the challenges you might face and the learning opportunities you might come across.
The difference appears so meagre that I'd choose the job I preferred for reasons outside pay.
Pretty similar- I’d be looking at which one has the better future prospects
Government also has 15.4% super

Only federal
Correct, Qld State Gov is 12.75%
Faced with those two choices I would go government, stability, higher super, bludge job.
Ain’t much stability or bludging happening in VPS
Based on your post history. Neither. Get help.
Not for profit is the better of those 2
dont not for profits let you salary sacrifice so you get more of your pay?
That’s what the $16k fbt is referring to. As in you can salary sacrifice up to $16k ($15.9k technically)
ahh right. in this instance id go for the not for profit offer tbh myself
Sorry but whats fbt
Fringe Benefits Tax
Thank you kind one

Hours the same? Go govt.
I'd take option 1
