Project Controls Analyst Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a project controls analyst in Colorado?
The typical path in Colorado starts with a bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering, or a related field, though some employers accept business or finance backgrounds with relevant experience. Colorado has no state-issued license specific to project controls, so employers emphasize professional credentials like the AACE Certified Cost Professional or the PMI Planning and Scheduling Professional. Gaining exposure to scheduling software and cost reporting on internship or early project work strengthens your candidacy considerably.
How much do project controls analysts make in Colorado?
Project controls analysts in Colorado earn a median of about $110,050 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $68,990 for the lowest 10% to over $171,630 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire project controls analysts in Colorado?
Companies currently hiring project controls analysts in Colorado include aptim, CRUSOE, and Raytheon, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Colorado's defense, aerospace, and large-scale infrastructure sectors generate consistent demand from both prime contractors and federal program offices operating along the Front Range.
Which Colorado cities have the most project controls analyst jobs?
Denver and Aurora have the most project controls analyst openings in Colorado. Denver drives the largest share through its concentration of engineering firms, energy companies, and large construction programs, while Colorado Springs and Aurora reflect the strong defense and aerospace presence anchored by military installations and contractors like Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman.
Are there remote project controls analyst jobs in Colorado?
Yes, and more than most fields, since the work is largely analytical and document-driven rather than requiring a daily physical presence on site. About 100% of project controls analyst openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting growing employer flexibility. Scheduling, reporting, and cost analysis functions tend to be the most remote-compatible parts of the role.
How can I get hired as a project controls analyst in Colorado with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a project coordinator or scheduler assistant role with a large engineering or construction firm. Colorado-based contractors like Kiewit and Jacobs Engineering hire early-career candidates into project support functions where they gain hands-on exposure to cost tracking and scheduling tools. Completing an AACE student membership, building proficiency in Primavera P6, and targeting internship programs at Front Range defense contractors or infrastructure agencies opens the door without requiring years of prior experience.
