Development Manager Jobs in Georgia: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a development manager in Georgia?

The path depends on the sector. In real estate and construction, Georgia employers typically expect a bachelor's degree in real estate, urban planning, or civil engineering along with experience in project delivery. In nonprofit and fundraising, a background in donor relations and a CFRE credential from the Association of Fundraising Professionals strengthens candidacy. Technology-focused roles favor PMP certification and experience managing software or product cycles. Georgia has no universal state license for the title itself, so the credential that matters most is determined by the industry you target.

How much do development managers make in Georgia?

Development managers in Georgia earn a median of about $125,000 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $67,500 for the lowest 10% to over $212,160 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire development managers in Georgia?

Employers hiring development managers in Georgia right now include NAPA Auto Parts, ABB, and Intuit, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Georgia's mix of large corporate headquarters in Atlanta, active real estate developers along the coast, and a growing nonprofit sector means openings come from a wide variety of organization types.

Which Georgia cities have the most development manager jobs?

Atlanta, Alpharetta, and Marietta account for the largest share of development manager openings in Georgia. Atlanta dominates because it is home to the state's largest corporate campuses, nonprofit organizations, and real estate developers, while Savannah's sustained port expansion and Augusta's healthcare and military presence generate consistent openings outside the metro.

Are there remote development manager jobs in Georgia?

Yes, and a meaningful share of listings include a remote or hybrid option, particularly for technology and nonprofit fundraising roles where stakeholder work can happen over video and project tools. About 78% of development manager openings tied to Georgia are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how much of the role centers on planning and communication rather than physical site work. Real estate and construction development manager roles remain largely on-site.

How can I get hired as a development manager in Georgia with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is through a coordinator or associate role in the sector you want to enter. In nonprofit development, organizations like United Way of Greater Atlanta and Habitat for Humanity of Georgia regularly hire development associates who build toward manager roles. In real estate, starting as a project coordinator with firms active in Atlanta's Beltline corridor or Savannah's historic district provides hands-on exposure. Pursuing a PMP certification or a CFRE credential while in an entry role makes a candidate significantly more competitive for the next step.
