Pension enrolment at New Jersey Building Authority

5 people at New Jersey Building Authority are enrolled in a State-administered pension fund, which is 100% of the 5 employees on its payroll. Independent authorities are not required to place staff in the State funds, so this is a measure of pension enrolment rather than of the workforce.

Among those members the median pensionable salary is $127,616, with the middle half between $122,514 and $157,560.

The median member has 20.9 years of credited service. The authority payroll data carries no hire date, so this is the only tenure measure available for authority staff, and it covers only the pension-enrolled portion of them.

These figures are pensionable salary reported to the NJ Division of Pensions and Benefits for the four most recent quarters, not total pay and not take-home pay. Snapshot of March 31, 2026. How we compile this.

The New Jersey Building Authority was created to finance and build state office buildings and other state facilities, funding the work through bond issues repaid from rent. It is the smallest employer on New Jersey's authority payroll by a wide margin, and the payroll shows no operating tier at all.

New Jersey Building Authority recorded 5 employees on New Jersey's independent authority payroll as of December 31, 2025. That is less than 0.1% of the 19,416 people employed across the 16 authorities in this dataset, and the smallest headcount of the group. Every employee on the payroll is recorded as full time.

Five people appear on the payroll: an executive director, a chief of construction, an administration operations manager, and two project managers. That is the whole organization as the payroll records it, so the salary figures below describe five senior positions rather than a pay structure with a top and a bottom.

Civil service titles and authority titles

None of the 5 titles on this payroll match a New Jersey civil service specification by name.

A number that low says less about the work than it looks like it does, because what was compared is title text. A match is title text lining up with a published specification, not Title 11A status; the employer directory answers that question, and data sources explains the crosswalk.

None of these titles match a civil service specification. At this size the authority simply names its own positions, and it is the only authority on this list with no civil service title match at all.

About this data

New Jersey YourMoney authority payroll, snapshot dated December 31, 2025. New Jersey Building Authority is not paid through the centralized state payroll, so these figures are never merged with state agency payroll on this site, and the dataset carries no hire date, so no tenure figures exist. At 5 employees, a single vacancy or new hire moves the median here, so year to year comparisons on a payroll this small are not meaningful. Full method: data sources and methodology.
