CHICAGO and ATLANTA, March 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Organizers are pros at helping the world run. They're either in charge or right behind the ones who are so that they can use their multitasking skills and efficiency to plan, schedule and keep track of details for the team. CareerBuilder and Emsi compiled a list of the top 10 organizer jobs the labor market needs based on their current number of jobs (at least 100,000), remarkable growth from 2011 to 2017 (9 percent or higher), and high annual salaries (25(th) percentile at least $53K).

"If you automatically sort and analyze things, if you were that kid who liked to tidy their room, or you're the friend who arranges all the get-togethers -- you're probably an organizer," said Rob Sentz, chief innovation officer at Emsi. "And that's good news because the labor market needs you in a number of high-wage, fast-growing jobs."
