ROLES
The positions we recruit.
56 roles across 20 commercial trades. Each page carries what the seat pays, the credentials that move an offer, and the federal wage figures for that occupation metro by metro.
Pay is not one kind of number. 39 of these carry a My Trade Talent band built from our own closed searches. The other 17 carry the federal 10th-to-90th percentile spread (May 2025) because we have not closed enough searches in those trades to publish a band of our own. Every row below says which it is.
