Randstad has been exclusively retained by a leading national infrastructure and civil consultancy to secure a Senior Civil Construction Project Manager (Advisory Consultant) for their expanding advisory practice. Our client bridges the gap between client strategy and practical construction reality. They advise state government departments, major developers, and tier-1 contractors on large-scale civil projects across Australia. This exclusive role is designed for a site-tested Project Manager who wants to step back from day-to-day site operations and apply their hands-on delivery expertise to high-level strategic advisory.
Key Responsibilities
- Constructability & Delivery Advisory: Provide expert guidance on construction methodologies, staging, site logistics, and risk mitigation during project planning, procurement, and design phases.
- Client Representation: Serve as a trusted advisor to asset owners and government bodies, helping oversee project performance, quality, and contractual compliance.
- Commercial & Project Controls: Evaluate project budgets, schedules, cost-to-complete forecasts, variations, and claims using direct site experience to judge constructability and commercial validity.
- Peer Reviews & Audits: Lead independent technical and project delivery reviews across major civil works (roads, earthworks, bridges, utilities, and heavy civil infrastructure).
- Strategic Stakeholder Management: Translate complex site realities into clear, executive-level insights for non-technical stakeholders, technical design teams, and client boards.
What You Bring
- Proven Site Expertise: 8+ years of hands-on project management experience delivering major civil infrastructure projects with a Tier 1, 2, or reputable regional contractor.
- Consulting Aptitude: Ability to think strategically and translate complex site-based challenges into clear, high-level advisory reports for clients.
- Qualifications: Tertiary qualifications in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field. Professional chartership (e.g., CPEng, AIPM, RPEQ) is advantageous.
- Commercial Acumen: In-depth understanding of standard civil contracts (e.g., AS 2124, AS 4000, GC21) and experience evaluating claims and variations.
- Strong Communication: Exceptional report-writing and presentation skills tailored for executive-level audiences.
What's on Offer
- Work-Life Balance: Move away from 60+ hour site weeks and enjoy flexible, hybrid working conditions (client-site, office, and home).
- Competitive Package: Generous base salary, superannuation, performance bonuses, and professional development support.
- National Exposure: Work on landmark civil infrastructure programs across Australia while building a career in top-tier management consultancy.
- Exclusive Opportunity: Direct access to hiring leaders via Randstad's dedicated recruitment team.
