You can project manage lots of different things, Paul. We have project managers where I work (a fridge manufacturing company) and they do spend some time on sites, but they also spend a lot of time in the office. Oh and working from home. And getting drunk with clients.

Are you still on the suck off bandwagon?
For you Ben, yes. If I can find it.

True, but Ellie suggested it wasn't the best place to job search so assumed the construction industry in particular.
Quote: Paul W @ March 25 2010, 8:26 PM GMTBigger companies will have multipule sites - and if this is construction project management (I assume you're talking about). there will be site offices you'll spend most of your time on.
Why the hell would I project manage construction? No way!
