Job Title:
Construction Project Manager
-----------------------------------
Job Description:
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced project manager to oversee the delivery of multiple high-rise residential projects. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in construction management, with experience in managing large-scale projects from early works to defects.
The successful candidate will be responsible for leading a team of site managers, foremen, safety officers, and engineers, and will be accountable for ensuring that all projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards.
Key responsibilities include: owning the planning and delivery of multiple high-rise residential projects; taking full ownership from risk review to final defect close-out across safety, programme, cost and quality; setting expectations for Site Managers, Foremen, Safety, CAs, engineers and cadets — and holding the line on standards and behaviours; keeping the pace high across both sites, ensuring strong alignment between office and field.
Owning master and target programmes, pressure testing sequencing and mitigation strategies; ensuring site-driven 3-week look-aheads are aligned, realistic and delivered; building the commercial strategy with your CA's, approving procurement and key letting decisions; driving disciplined cost reviews, protecting margin and managing variations with clarity.
Leading the interface between consultants, design management and site; making balanced decisions early to protect quality, risk and commercial outcomes; treating safety and quality as non-negotiables and stepping in when required; running clear PCG reporting, internal comms and early escalation so issues are flagged before they become problems.
Building a high-performance environment with no room for passengers; coaching emerging Site Managers, CAs and engineers through structured development and feedback; contributing to continual improvement, including system updates and procurement learnings from local and offshore visits.
This role suits a proven PM who's delivered complex projects and wants to take on broader responsibility. Someone who has run end-to-end projects and is ready to manage multiple towers; brings a strong work ethic, competitiveness and pride in their craft; understands high-rise or complex build environments — residential, mixed-use, commercial, education or health.
Has handled pressure well, stays composed and makes clear decisions; sets high personal standards and cares about how a building performs long after handover; is ambitious, hungry to grow and wants to be part of a team that pushes the standard in the industry.
Required Skills and Qualifications:
* Solid experience delivering complex buildings from early works to defects.
* Strong commercial acumen — budgets, trade letting, variations, forecasting and contract management.
* Well-developed planning and programme capability on larger structures.
* Proven ability to lead and get the best from Site Managers, Foremen, CAs, Safety and engineers.
* Clear, direct communication — written and verbal — with confidence dealing with senior leadership, development, sales and purchasers.
* Qualifications in construction management, engineering or a related discipline, or a respected trade background with strong management performance.
Benefits:
We welcome interstate applicants and will support relocation for the right person. This role offers significant upside for someone who wants to stretch themselves and build a long-term career. You'll have the opportunity to work closely with the Head of Construction and Managing Director, influence procurement decisions, and participate in an active development program.
Others:
Everyone who joins us has a genuine development pathway and the backing to grow alongside the business. We're investing heavily in people, systems and modern methodologies, and we're committed to creating a high-performance environment where everyone can thrive.
