In this article we are looking at salaries for project managers based on two criteria:
The Institute is 100% focused on Project Management field and is committed to the development and the professionalization of our chosen field. Part of this commitment is our undertaking of the unique benchmarking survey which has for the last seven years examined the people aspects of project management, building a picture of project professionals’ careers, earnings and prospect.
Years working in Project Management | Average |
Less than 5 | 58,000 |
5 to 10 | 66,000 |
10 to 15 | 78,000 |
15 to 20 | 88,000 |
It is important to note that the category “Years Working in Project Management” is not the same as “Years Working”.
The first job of many now involved in the discipline does not generally begin with a project management position but with a functional one. A project management position generally represents the second job.
So, for example, an individual may have worked for 5 years in a functional role and then transferred to a project management position. This individual would fall into the category.
