They work on every aspect of a project from beginning to end, starting with the planning stages and ending with an analysis of the project\u2019s results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Skills and Duties<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Project managers work in a range of different industries, including construction, engineering, IT and marketing. However, whatever their specialism, most project managers need the same vital skills: they have to be organised, efficient, thorough, and good at managing people. They need to be confident in planning budgets, and then sticking to them. In the modern workplace, computer literacy is also a must.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Qualifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The majority of project managers enter the workplace with a degree, often joining graduate training schemes. They spend time gaining experience and working their way up to project manager. It\u2019s also possible to get a higher-level apprenticeship which leads to project management. Either way, you need 5 good GCSEs, and usually A-levels as well. You can get further professional qualifications through the Association for Project Management.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Salary<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Salaries for project managers are quite high, because it is a senior position and takes in a wide range of industries. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.co.uk\/jobs\/salaries\/project-manager\">average salary for a project manager<\/a>\u00a0is around \u00a346,000 according to advertised vacancies, although you might expect to start at around \u00a326,000, depending on the specific industry, the location, the size of the project, and your own level of experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Career Path<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Project management is an increasingly popular role, and there are opportunities for promotion. You might move on to bigger projects, get a more senior position within a company, or become a consulting project manager. Freelance consultants tend to earn the highest salaries, but it is a difficult position to achieve.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can find out\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.co.uk\/jobs\/value-my-cv\/?utm_source=career-tips&amp;utm_medium=article&amp;utm_campaign=project-manager-cv\">how much your CV is worth\u00a0<\/a>by uploading it to ValueMyCV.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field field-name-field-description field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\">\n<div class=\"field-items\">\n<div class=\"field field-name-field-description field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\">\n<div class=\"field-items\">\n<div class=\"field-item even\">\n<div class=\"field field-name-field-description field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\">\n<div class=\"field-items\">\n<div class=\"field-item even\">\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.co.uk\/jobs\/project-manager\">Find project manager jobs<\/a>\u00a0in your area now.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a free and fully formatted Project Manager CV template, and advice on which skills employers are looking for you&#8217;ve come to the right place!
