Narrative and skills
Construction managers plan, coordinate, budget, and supervise construction projects from start to finish.
Construction managers may have a main office but spend most of their time in a field office onsite, where they monitor projects and make decisions about construction activities. Their schedules may vary.
Construction managers typically need a bachelor’s degree, and they learn management techniques through on-the-job training. Large construction firms may prefer to hire candidates who have both construction experience and a bachelor’s degree in a construction-related field.
The median annual wage for construction managers was $106,980 in May 2024.
