The Opportunity
We're partnering with an established Queensland builder looking to appoint an experienced Construction Project Manager to join their growing team.
With a solid pipeline across social housing, commercial, automotive and retirement living, you'll take ownership of projects typically ranging from $5M-$10M, with larger developments reaching approximately $30M.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working within a lean project team where you can genuinely take ownership rather than getting lost within layers of management.

- Procurement and management of subcontractor packages
- Contract administration, variations, claims and cost control
- Programming and monitoring construction progress
- Working closely with Site Managers to drive project delivery
- Managing client, consultant and subcontractor relationships
- Identifying project risks and resolving issues before they impact delivery
- Ensuring projects meet programme, quality, safety and compliance requirements
Ideally, you will have:
- Proven Project Management experience within commercial building
- Strong commercial and contractual capability
- Experience managing subcontractors and trade packages
- Sound knowledge of Australian construction codes and standards
- Strong programming, cost management and reporting capability
- A practical approach to problem solving
