Project Controls Manager Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a project controls manager in Florida?

Most project controls managers in Florida enter the field with a bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering, or a related discipline, then build experience in scheduling or cost control roles before moving into management. Florida does not require a state-issued license for this role, but employers widely expect AACE International or PMI credentials such as the Planning and Scheduling Professional. Gaining experience on Florida's active construction and infrastructure projects is the most direct path to a management seat.

How much do project controls managers make in Florida?

Project controls managers 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 managers in Florida?

Employers hiring project controls managers in Florida right now include H&H, Keith, and ENFRA, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Florida's concentration of aerospace, defense, and large-scale infrastructure programs means many of these employers support long-term project pipelines with consistent project controls staffing needs.

Which Florida cities have the most project controls manager jobs?

Tampa, Orlando, and Tallahassee have the most project controls manager openings in Florida. Orlando leads because of its aerospace and defense ecosystem anchored by the Kennedy Space Center corridor, while Tampa's large construction and infrastructure activity and Jacksonville's military installations and port expansion projects drive steady demand in those metros.

Are there remote project controls manager jobs in Florida?

Yes, but they're relatively limited. About 33% of project controls manager openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the role's frequent need for on-site schedule coordination and field data collection. The functions most likely to be performed remotely are cost reporting, forecasting, and data analysis, while schedule updates tied to active construction sites typically require physical presence.

How can I get hired as a project controls manager in Florida with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is a project controls analyst or project coordinator role on a large construction or aerospace program. Florida employers such as large engineering and construction firms operating on infrastructure and government contracts regularly hire analysts with a relevant degree and Primavera P6 exposure. Pursuing an AACE student membership and completing a cost or schedule internship while studying at a Florida university gives candidates a concrete credential advantage when applying for junior roles.

Where can I find and apply to project controls manager jobs in Florida?

You can find and apply to project controls manager jobs in Florida on Migrate Mate, which lists current Florida openings across construction, aerospace, defense, and infrastructure. Find the roles that fit your experience and apply directly to the ones that match.
