Okay, let’s tackle this. So Lori has 6+ years of experience as an office manager, which is a mid-level management role. Her skills in leadership are in demand, but the location is the Atlanta Metropolitan Area, which has a relatively low cost of living compared to other major US cities. Industry standards for office managers in this area typically range from $30 to $60 per hour. Considering her experience and leadership skills, I’ll estimate a rate on the higher end of this range, around $45 per hour.
