About the Role
Our client is a well-established construction and demolition business looking for a hands-on Junior Project Manager to support the delivery of short-cycle projects across Melbourne. This is a career-defining opportunity for someone with a trade background ready to transition from the tools into project leadership.
You’ll work alongside a small, high-performing team who value accountability, practical thinking, and clear communication. If you’re proactive, calm under pressure, and eager to learn, this role offers the support and exposure to grow into a fully-fledged Project Manager.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Assisting in the planning and delivery of multiple small to mid-sized projects
- Coordinating logistics, site teams, contractors, and compliance
- Managing daily project documentation, safety processes, and prestarts
- Liaising with engineers, subcontractors, and internal teams
- Troubleshooting issues on-site and keeping things moving smoothly
- Learning from senior PMs and building your confidence in delivery
What You’ll Bring
- A trade background, ideally in carpentry or a similar discipline
- On-site experience in construction, civil, demolition, or related industries
- Strong documentation and organisational skills
- Explicit and confident communication across all levels
- A solutions mindset and steady approach when things get busy
- The drive to grow into leadership and own your projects
Why This Role Stands Out
- Structured growth path – move into full PM responsibility over time
- Dynamic projects – no red tape, no micromanagement, just action
- Tight-knit team – approachable leaders, clear expectations
- Respected name in the industry – known for getting the job done
- Work/life balance – Monday to Friday, metro-based role
Ready to Step Off the Tools?
If you're ready to build your project management career in a team that values autonomy, delivery, and real outcomes this is your next move.
