in Beginner’s Guide

Table of Contents

  • 1. There’s Great Job Stability
  • 2. You Have a Multitude of Roles to Choose From
  • 3. Your Salary Will Be Rewarding

There are career paths out there that have stood the test of time and are as sought-after as they’ve always been, if not even in more demand than before. These are the so-called more ‘classic’ career choices with practical involvement and palpable impact, such as becoming a teacher, a doctor, a lawyer or an engineer, for starters. Another very desirable career path still remains in the construction industry and, for many people, this translates into becoming a construction manager.

Since the world is primarily headed towards a more digitized version of life, the benefits of choosing a career in construction are seldom ever talked about anymore. So let’s take a closer look at the wonderful rewards you would benefit from when choosing to become a construction manager:

1. There’s Great Job Stability

As we’ve mentioned before, the construction industry is a permanently flourishing one, even though it may have some temporary hiccups from time to time. This is why the demand for an ever-expanding personnel in this professional area is constantly on the rise, so you’re lucky if you want to embark on a career path in construction.

Construction managers are not only sought-after for new buildings, but also for remodeling, renovating and retrofitting projects. Considering all this information, you should rest assured that once you begin carving your way as a construction manager, you’ll have the security of this position virtually endlessly. Chances are extremely slim of you ever needing to worry for lack of continuity once a project is over or once you’ve quit a specific job. All in all, there’s great job security as a construction manager and that’s an incentive for anyone looking for stability in life.

2. You Have a Multitude of Roles to Choose From

Another hidden reward of being a construction manager is that it does not restrict you to any single role, but instead it gives you the opportunity to put your skills to best use and choose the specific type of job description you want to get involved in. Once you have experience as a construction manager, you can also work as a builder foreman or site supervisor.

These three roles are laid out in order of their ranking in this industry, with the builder as the main unit involved in the actual construction process, the foreman as the one that coordinates the work of all site operatives and the site supervisor as the one that ensures everything on site happens in accordance with health and safety guidelines. However you will need to start off your training in the field by enrolling in building and construction courses that will pave your way towards a successful career in construction management.

3. Your Salary Will Be Rewarding

Of all the blue-collar career paths out there, construction management is the one offering the highest financial rewards. Of course, numbers will differ depending on the area you live in, on your expertise and experience, but it’s safe to say the salary is gratifying enough for you to live off decently, even at the start of your career.

According to Payscale, the average salary of a construction manager is $78,264/year. If you already have a couple of years under your belt and you’re mid-level, the numbers will go up and hit around $82,000/year. There is a wide range of factors influencing the financial reasoning behind the salary of a construction manager and the most important of them are: experience, education, official certifications, the employer, the work conditions and the number of subordinates.

In conclusion, these are only some of the major benefits in choosing a career as a construction manager and the main reasons why so many people are actively putting in effort into achieving a position like this. If you’ve decided that this is the path you want to pursue, make sure you do adequate research on all the qualifications you need and that may help you on your way up and that you know everything else such a blue-collar job typically entails.

You’ll discover that although quite physically challenging, being a construction manager has a high degree of personal fulfillment both in terms of the job and financial security it offers, but also in terms of the palpable results you leave behind.
