Listings on a job board are not a random sample of all restoration project manager jobs, so read them as a picture of current hiring, not of total employment.

This page is published only while the live sample has at least 300 listings from 25 employers.

Advertised pay is the midpoint of the range an employer posts, or its single figure, and hourly and annual postings are never converted into each other.

The headline is the employer median: each employer’s own median, then the median across employers, so a group posting hundreds of openings counts once.

A pay figure needs at least 30 listings from 10 employers and is withheld when one employer posted more than half of them.

Federal figures come from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the other sources listed below, quoted as published, with the year in each sentence.

BLS has no restoration project manager occupation. The BLS figures on this page are for construction managers (SOC 11-9021), a broad occupation that includes managers of large commercial builds, shown only as a labelled proxy. OEWS covers payroll employees only; BLS Employment Projections include the self-employed (37.6% of construction managers in 2025), which is why the 2025 projections base (609,100) is far above the May 2025 payroll count (380,360).
