Construction Managers
If you enjoy taking the lead in group projects, pride yourself on your time management skills, or enjoy working with many different people to achieve a common goal, a construction management job might be right for you. As a Construction Manager, you’ll be the boss of building sites – think towering skyscrapers, sleek bridges, and winding roads.
Though construction managers mainly oversee the building phase of a project, they can also collaborate with designers, engineers, stockholders, and project managers to work out the finer details of a project before construction even begins. Construction managers work to make sure each project is finished on time and within budget. If you’re a natural leader, a creative problem-solver, and a people person, then consider building a career in construction management!
