The title 'project manager' on its own, with no further clarification of the job role, is totally meaningless.
Person A might have the title of 'project manager' on a major national infrastructure project (such as HS2), with a salary of around £70k p.a. and managing a large team of people plus handling a significant budget. (If he/she is a 'senior project manager' though, their salary could be well over £100k).
Person B might be a 'project manager' in, say, a small haulage company, with nobody under him/her, only a small budget to administer and a salary of only around £30k.
The term 'doctor' also embraces a multitude of roles, from a junior hospital doctor up to a consultant surgeon, with vastly different levels of pay involved.
It's not only about money either when considering which job is 'best'. Job satisfaction should also come into it. Some doctors (such as GPs and trauma care specialists) face new challenges every day, whereas other doctors (such as those performing routine prostate procedures) probably get bored stiff by doing the same thing day in and day out.
Similarly, some project managers constantly have to find new ways of doing things, whereas others spend nearly every day just filling in the same old boring forms.
