The Company
Our client is an established and growing civil contractor delivering bulk earthworks, pad construction, roadworks and drainage packages across Central Queensland. With an expanding project portfolio and integrated wet hire capability, the business is entering a disciplined growth phase and requires strong operational leadership to support its next stage.
The Opportunity
This is a pivotal Project Manager role with full accountability across estimating, programming, commercial reconciliation, productivity performance and project delivery.
You will lead engineers, supervisors and plant operations across multiple work fronts, ensuring production targets, margin control and client outcomes are achieved.
