Construction managers in the United States earn a median of $114,990 annually, according to the BLS. Pay moves based on project size and complexity, sector, years of experience, certifications, and whether the role requires travel. Heavy civil, data center, rail, tunnel, and wastewater work tend to carry meaningful premiums over comparable roles in lighter sectors. Scope of responsibility matters too. A manager who owns full budget, schedule, and subcontractor oversight on a large infrastructure project will command more than one with narrower authority. Amundson Group finds construction managers by drawing on a network of 90,000+ construction professionals built across heavy civil, site development, data center, rail, tunnel, and wastewater recruiting. We match scope, sector, and market to the right candidate. For current pay ranges by role, see our Construction Placement Pay Index at https://amundsongroup.com/construction-pay-index/
