The median for Account Manager is $110,000 per year (typically $80,250–$160,000), versus $98,335 for Technical Support ($73,699–$133,440). That puts Account Manager about 12% ahead at the median.

Only roles that publish a salary range feed the medians; numbers refresh every few hours as new roles post and older ones close, so this comparison reflects the market right now rather than a fixed survey. Use it as a directional benchmark when weighing one path against the other.
