250+ Manufacturing & Construction Jobs in Philadelphia, PA

Government wage data still provide the cleanest baseline: in annual 2025 BLS data, construction occupations in the metro had a $63,560 median and $72,350 mean annual wage, while installation, maintenance, and repair roles had a $61,690 median and $65,870 mean. Recent posting data point higher for some openings, with local posted salaries centered on about $75k to $105k and hourly-paid postings centered on about $25 to $30 / hour, but those are directional posting bands rather than full-market medians.

What our analysts see this month

Balanced market | next 3-6 months

Philadelphia is a workable but uneven market for Manufacturing, Construction & Field Services right now. Metro mining, logging, and construction employment was 128.3 thousand in August 2026 and down -1.0031% year-over-year, while metro manufacturing employment was 178.7 thousand and up 0.5627% year-over-year. At the same time, the market still showed more than 1,400 postings across more than 750 companies over the last 90 days, and the Philadelphia Fed reported continued data-center and related manufacturing construction plus electrician shortages delaying projects. The result is a market that rewards specific skills, licenses, and site-ready experience more than generic availability.

Best positioned: Licensed or clearly skilled candidates in electrical, maintenance, specialty construction, and site-based problem solving, especially those who can show troubleshooting, preventive maintenance, blueprint reading, safety compliance, and a valid driver's license, have the best odds.

Main caution: Do not assume every trade is equally hot: the Philadelphia Fed said there was little new activity elsewhere in nonresidential construction outside data-center and related manufacturing work.

Where the demand is

Real opportunity is spread across several employer types rather than one dominant buyer. In the recent sample, hiring was fragmented across employers, with more than 1,400 postings across more than 750 companies; the most-active industries were construction at about 40%, real estate at about 20%, manufacturing at about 15%, and healthcare plus hospitals and health care at about 10% combined. That means this is not just a contractor market: property operators, plants, hospitals, and engineering firms all matter. The named employer mix makes that visible. Recent active employers included Clemens Food Group, Westover Companies, ARCO Design/Build, G.E. Mechanical, Lockheed Martin, Jefferson Health, Greystar, and Jacobs Engineering Group. Pair that with the Philadelphia Fed's note that data-center and related manufacturing construction continued while other nonresidential activity was quieter, and the smartest search is usually multi-track: one list for contractors, one for facilities and property operators, and one for industrial and manufacturing sites.

• Data-center and power-adjacent construction (high): The clearest specialty-demand signal is electrical and power-heavy work: the Philadelphia Fed said electrician shortages delayed data-center projects and that data-center and related manufacturing construction continued in the region.
• Property and facilities maintenance (high): A meaningful share of local postings sits in real estate, and active employers include Westover Companies and Greystar Real Estate Partners, LLC, which supports a steady lane in building operations and property maintenance.
• Manufacturing and industrial sites (moderate): Metro manufacturing employment was 178.7 thousand in August 2026 and up 0.5627% year-over-year, and active employers include Clemens Food Group and Lockheed Martin Corporation.
• Healthcare and institutional facilities (moderate): Healthcare and hospitals together account for about 10% of the sampled posting mix, Jefferson Health is among active employers, and public-sector facilities workers just won a contract with 9.5% raises over three years.

Where to focus: Prioritize electrical, maintenance, facilities, and specialty construction roles tied to contractors, property operators, manufacturers, and institutional employers rather than betting only on broad nonresidential construction.

Roles worth searching next

• Safety coordinator / EHS specialist: Safety compliance is already a common ask in local trade postings, so this move keeps you close to sites and crews without staying fully tool-on every day.
• Facilities coordinator / property operations coordinator: The local opportunity mix includes a real-estate and institutional facilities lane, with Westover Companies, Greystar Real Estate Partners, LLC, and Jefferson Health among active employers.
• BIM / CAD technician: Blueprint reading carries over well, and BIM is moving deeper into field planning and construction execution.
• Maintenance planner / service dispatcher: Preventive maintenance and troubleshooting knowledge transfer well into planning, scheduling, and service coordination roles.
• Supply chain / production planner: Metro manufacturing employment was 178.7 thousand in August 2026 and up 0.5627% year-over-year, so plant-adjacent planning work is a realistic next lane for factory-experienced candidates.

What postings ask for

• Troubleshooting (table_stakes | immediate): Troubleshooting is one of the most-requested hard skills in local postings, so it is a baseline screen for maintenance, field service, and repair-heavy roles. Who: Entry-level maintenance candidates, field-service applicants, and mid-career tradespeople changing employer types.
• Preventive maintenance (table_stakes | immediate): Preventive maintenance is repeatedly requested in local postings, which makes it one of the clearest bridges from reactive repair work into steadier plant and facilities roles. Who: Maintenance techs, building engineers, plant workers, and career switchers coming from hands-on service work.
• Safety compliance / OSHA safety training (differentiator | immediate): Safety compliance is a common ask in local postings, and OSHA Safety Certificate is listed as a valuable credential for field engineers and technicians. Who: Anyone applying to active job sites, field service, facilities, or industrial environments.
• Blueprint reading (differentiator | immediate): Blueprint reading shows up often enough in local postings to separate site-ready applicants from general applicants. Who: Construction candidates, installers, maintenance leads, and anyone eyeing higher-skill technician work.
• Valid driver's license (table_stakes | immediate): A valid driver's license is the most commonly cited credential in the local posting sample, which often matters more than people expect for mobile, site-based, and facilities work. Who: Field service, facilities, helper, maintenance, and contractor applicants.
• Electrical and EV-infrastructure basics (premium | near-term): Philadelphia launched a local electrical pre-apprenticeship in September, and the regional Beige Book said electrician shortages were delaying projects. Who: Entry-level candidates choosing a lane and experienced workers looking for a stronger specialty.

Questions about this market

What do Manufacturing, Construction & Field Services roles pay in Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington, PA-NJ-DE-MD?

Government wage data still provide the cleanest baseline: in annual 2025 BLS data, construction occupations in the metro had a $63,560 median and $72,350 mean annual wage, while installation, maintenance, and repair roles had a $61,690 median and $65,870 mean. Recent posting data point higher for some openings, with local posted salaries centered on about $75k to $105k and hourly-paid postings centered on about $25 to $30 / hour, but those are directional posting bands rather than full-market medians. Philadelphia can pay above national averages for these families: local mean hourly wages were $34.78 for construction and extraction occupations and $31.67 for installation, maintenance, and repair occupations in May 2025, versus $31.42 and $30.44 nationally. That is solid pay if you can qualify for licensed, maintenance-heavy, or supervisory work, but not every opening sits near the top of the posted band.
