What our data shows for Construction Managers

RoleHue publishes 15 salary records for Construction Managers, across a single city. Weighted by how many records each city contributes, the band runs from $110,748 at the 25th percentile to $154,500 at the 75th, a spread of $43,752 around $130,000. Each of those three figures averages the city-level percentiles rather than ranking the pooled records, and weights each city by how many records it holds, so the cities we hold most data for pull them hardest. Measured against that $130,000 figure rather than in dollars (34% of it), that spread is mid-pack among the roles we cover.

Every one of those records comes from New York, NY, so nothing on this page should be read as a national figure. It is one metro's picture, and it will change shape as other cities reach the ten-record threshold we require before publishing a number.
