Personal Service Managers, All Other
Personal Service Managers, All Other (SOC 11-9179) earn a median $69,770 a year ($33.54 an hour) in the United States, with 10,450 employed as of May 2025; the highest-paying state is Wisconsin.
What personal service managers, all other do
Personal service managers, all other, is a residual category for managers of personal service businesses and programs that are not listed as separate management occupations. Such establishments provide personal services to individual customers. O*NET includes travel agency managers among the titles for this group. Because the SOC definition names no tasks, the duties depend on the kind of business being managed. The category excludes financial specialists, who are classified elsewhere in business and financial operations, and managers of daycare programs, who are included with education and childcare administrators for preschool and daycare. Food service, lodging, and entertainment and recreation managers each have their own classifications. Because the category is a catch-all, one description cannot fit every business, and the matching O*NET entry offers no task list to draw on.
Also called: Travel Agency Manager.

BLS does not design OEWS as a time series: each release pools three years of samples, and occupational classifications, area definitions and estimation methods change between releases, so a difference between two releases is not a measure of change over time. The figures are shown as published, side by side, and nothing is computed from them. See how often OEWS is updated.
