Cecure is a specialist builder working across Victoria in complex building remediation, defect rectification, and strata-led apartment upgrades. Following a strategic restructure, Cecure is scaling a high-performing team to deliver projects with technical complexity, residential familiarity, and commercial structure. Think: water ingress fixes, façade remediation, fire compliance upgrades - across apartment buildings and multi-unit dwellings up to 15m.
The Opportunity
We're looking for a solutions-focused Project Manager who can guide projects from initial customer agreement through to construction handover, working closely with engineers, consultants, and site teams. You'll thrive in a role where no two scopes are the same and where D&C projects require methodical planning, creative thinking, and strong technical knowledge.
This isn't volume residential - it's problem-solving, stakeholder navigation, and forward planning across strata assets. You'll manage approx. 12–15 live projects a year, with strong support from an in-house construction team.
Key Responsibilities
* Manage full project lifecycle: scope definition, pricing, permits, stakeholder engagement, handover to construction.
* Coordinate with engineers, building surveyors (RBS), and drafting teams.
* Develop and maintain sequential programs and milestone plans.
* Oversee construction progress (without leading delivery), participating in site meetings.
* Liaise with OC managers, strata consultants, and occasionally insurers.
* Provide pre-construction input into BOQs, trade coordination, and sequencing.
About You
* Experienced in residential or apartment construction.
* Familiar with building defect remediation, waterproofing, cladding, and complex upgrade work.
* Technically strong - able to reverse engineer issues and offer alternate build solutions.
* Excellent communicator - able to manage multiple stakeholders clearly and professionally.
* Confident with sequencing logic and early planning (not just delivery).
* Comfortable in D&C environments where documentation evolves.
* Able to work alongside or mentor a PC/Contract Admin.
Bonus Points
* Experience dealing with strata committees, superintendents, and remedial consultants.
* Worked with RBSs on certification paths.
* Familiar with fire, hydraulics, and building compliance upgrades.
Why Join?
* Work on diverse, meaningful projects that improve how people live.
* Step into a business that's reshaping its future - with room for you to shape your role.
* Join a tight, capable team with real decision-making power.
