While salaries trend above average in the state, finding work can be challenging, with fewer than 6,000 project management professionals pursuing careers in New Hampshire. One good option is industrial production management, paying $104,000 yearly in Portsmouth, and over $90,000 on average in the Rochester-Dover area. In Manchester, the best choice is architectural and engineering management, with 140 employed in the field earning a median salary of almost $129,000. Rochester-Dover salaries for computer and information systems managers are just 84% of the U.S. average salary, and for architectural and engineering managers only 88% of the median. On the upside, PMPs can spend their winter weekends skiing on the legendary slopes of the White Mountains.
