Although most agree that the worst of the economic recession is behind us, wage growth continues to be slower than workers would prefer. However, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal, there are a few jobs with already high wages where pay continues to rise.

Let’s take a look at the top five high-paying jobs with rising salaries.

Physician assistants

According to PayScale data, physician assistants earn, on average, about $87,000 per year. And, this new research reveals that between 2004 and 2014, earnings growth was 42 percent for these professionals, adjusted for inflation. Although PAs are licensed medical professionals, the work does not require as much education and training as becoming a physician. This could be a great avenue to consider if you’re interesting in working within the medical profession.

These folks earn a median income of over $60,000 a year, according to PayScale’s data, and earnings growth was reported as 38.9 percent between 2004 and 2014. Plan on earning a master’s degree in occupational therapy and gaining experience through internships to land this job.

Pay increases consistently for financial managers over the course of their careers as they gain experience. Because this is a management role, experience is required, as well as a bachelor’s degree in finance, business, or a related area of study. Indeed reports that financial managers’ income increased 38.3 from 2004 to 2014.
