We’re looking for a Project Manager to run projects from estimator handover through to close-out. You’ll be running Tier 2 commercial fitout joinery projects ranging from $50,000 to $600,000, managing an average of four to six live projects at a time. Projects include offices, schools and universities, small institutional work and hospitality fitouts. Site delivery is handled by our site manager, so this is a project ownership role rather than a site role.
Key responsibilities
- Take projects over from estimating and agree a clear scope with the client
- Run each project to deliver on budget, on time and to quality standards
- Be the main point of contact for builders and clients
- Guide the set-out team on construction methods, materials and detailing so projects are drawn right the first time
- Work closely with set-out, production and site teams to keep projects moving
- Manage procurement, suppliers and subcontractors
- Identify variations and work with estimating to price them
- Manage progress claims and close out projects cleanly
- Set up and run projects in Innergy, our ERP system, and manage programs in our scheduling system
About you
- Background in commercial joinery or cabinet making
- Strong knowledge of joinery construction, materials and hardware, and the confidence to pass that on to our set-out team
- A solid understanding of joinery installation methods, so what gets drawn and built actually goes in on site
- Comfortable working inside an ERP; Innergy experience is a strong plus
- Strong commercial sense and ability to manage a budget
- Clear, direct communication with builders, suppliers and internal teams
- Organised enough to carry several projects without dropping detail
- Right to work in Australia
- Able to commute to Coburg North daily
