# What’s the Construction Staffing Market Like in Florida Right Now, and How Hard Is It to Fill Senior Roles?

Florida's construction market remains competitive in 2026. Senior roles are genuinely hard to fill. The AGC workforce survey found that 88% of firms said craft roles were as hard or harder to fill than the prior year, and salaried openings were nearly as difficult. Nationally, construction unemployment sits near historic lows, with hundreds of thousands of positions unfilled across the country. Amundson Group places superintendents, project managers, project engineers, estimators, and foremen across heavy civil, site development, data center, rail, tunnel, and wastewater work throughout Florida.
