Project Controls Analyst Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a project controls analyst in Florida?
The most direct path is a bachelor's degree in construction management, civil engineering, or a related field, followed by entry into a project controls or project engineering role. Florida has no state-issued license specific to project controls analysts, though many employers value AACE International credentials such as the Certified Cost Technician or Certified Planning and Scheduling Professional. Gaining experience in Florida's construction, infrastructure, or defense sectors accelerates advancement significantly.
How much do project controls analysts make in Florida?
Project controls analysts in Florida earn a median of about $98,070 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $59,070 for the lowest 10% to over $161,250 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire project controls analysts in Florida?
Employers hiring project controls analysts in Florida right now include Citi, Ampirical, and BankUnited, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Florida's large-scale infrastructure programs, defense contracting activity around Orlando and the Space Coast, and the construction industry concentrated in Tampa and South Florida make it one of the more consistent states for project controls hiring.
Which Florida cities have the most project controls analyst jobs?
Jacksonville, Miami, and Tampa have the most project controls analyst openings in Florida. Orlando leads because of its density of defense contractors, aerospace firms, and major infrastructure programs, while Tampa draws demand from large construction and engineering firms, and Jacksonville's growing port, logistics, and public works projects sustain steady hiring for controls professionals.
Are there remote project controls analyst jobs in Florida?
Yes, though they're less common than in purely desk-based fields, since project controls work often requires on-site schedule reviews and coordination with field teams. About 67% of project controls analyst openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting that while the role has an analytical component, many employers prefer proximity to project sites. Cost reporting and data analysis duties are the tasks most frequently performed remotely.
How can I get hired as a project controls analyst in Florida with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry point is a project coordinator or project engineer role at a Florida construction or engineering firm, which builds the scheduling and cost tracking skills employers require. Large Florida contractors and program managers such as Turner Construction, AECOM, and Jacobs periodically hire junior controls staff or recent graduates. Earning an entry-level AACE credential and demonstrating Primavera P6 proficiency, even through coursework, gives candidates a concrete edge over applicants without that background.
