Atlanta's construction PM market is active and diverse. You'll see mid-level roles typically range from $100K, $125K, with senior positions reaching $170K, $210K depending on project scope and experience. Public sector benchmarks (like City of Atlanta PM II roles) start around $73K, $98K and require a bachelor's degree plus 5 years of experience; certifications like PMP, CCM, and OSHA 30 strengthen competitiveness. Commercial general contractors are hiring PMs at $70/hour for contract roles, while mission-critical and specialized work, particularly complex government retrofit, water/wastewater, or $50M+ projects, commands premium compensation packages with bonuses and benefits. Most employers want 5-10+ years of hands-on construction PM experience, strong process knowledge, and software proficiency. At Amundson Group, we specialize in placing senior construction leaders across commercial, civil, industrial, and energy sectors nationwide, and we know the Atlanta market well. If you're exploring opportunities, we'd love to discuss roles matched to your experience and goals.
