Atlanta's construction market is hot for Project Managers. Most PM roles here offer base salaries in the $95K, $125K range, with competitive offers landing around $110K, $120K plus bonus. Senior PMs managing larger projects ($50M+) can see $135K, $155K. When you factor in bonuses, vehicles, and completion incentives, total compensation often runs 22-38% above base.
Demand is concentrated in Midtown, Buckhead, and the Westside, driven by commercial development, healthcare expansion, and infrastructure projects tied to Atlanta's logistics hub status. Top employers actively hiring include Hoar, ARCO, and CBRE.
Most roles require 5+ years of experience and a degree in Construction Management or Civil Engineering. Fair warning: only about one-third of Atlanta PM positions are remote or hybrid, most are site-based, as they should be.
