Senior Project Manager / Project Manager

Commercial Construction | Brisbane

Are you over the endless meetings, bored with doing reports that mean nothing, think the multi-layers of management don't add value or just sick of the politics and want to simply build again? We are a well-established, privately owned Queensland commercial builder experiencing strong, sustainable growth. With a strong reputation for quality, repeat business and long-term client relationships, we deliver projects throughout South East Queensland across:

• Education
• Health
• Local & State Government
• Sporting Facilities
• Hospitality & Clubs
• Commercial
• Community Infrastructure
• New Build, fitout, refurbishment

Our project values typically range up to $15 million, but we are actively seeking larger projects, and we are seeking an experienced Project Manager or Senior Project Manager to join our team.

The Opportunity

You will take ownership of projects from award through to handover, working closely with our Directors and experienced site teams to successfully deliver a diverse range of commercial construction projects. You'll have the autonomy to run your projects without unnecessary bureaucracy, while still having the support of an experienced leadership team whenever required.

About You

We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys building commercial projects, leading people and knows how to do it. Ideally you'll have:

• Proven experience delivering commercial construction projects up to approximately $15 million or more
• Experience across new builds, refurbishments and fitouts
• Strong commercial and contractual knowledge
• Excellent communication and relationship management skills
• A collaborative leadership style
• The ability to solve problems and make sound decisions

Looking for the change?

Perhaps you've spent years with a larger builder delivering major projects. You've gained the experience. You've worked the long hours. You've sat through the endless meetings, and listened to people who have no idea about how to build. You've prepared reports, dashboards and presentations that seemed to generate even more reports, dashboards and presentations. All the while they do not make your project easier, faster, safer or better to build.

If you're looking for a role where you can spend more time actually delivering projects, mentoring your team and working with clients—and less time navigating layers of corporate process—you may be exactly who we're looking for.

We're not trying to be the biggest builder. We want to be a great builder.

Why Join Us?

We believe experienced construction professionals perform at their best when they are trusted to do what they do best. We don't expect SPM/Project Managers to spend their days producing reports for the sake of reports, or endless and repetitive meetings. We employ experienced professionals because we trust their judgement, value their experience and want them focused on one thing – building the projects.

Who Will Enjoy This Role?

This role would suit someone who:

• Enjoys delivering quality projects, that have time and money in them.
• Wants to work in a business where decisions are made quickly.
• Values relationships over corporate hierarchy.
• Enjoys mentoring younger team members and sharing their experience.
• Is looking for a long-term career with a stable and growing Queensland builder.

Whether you're currently working for a national tier 1 contractor, a Tier 2 builder, or another respected commercial builder, if you're looking for a role where your experience is genuinely valued, we'd welcome a confidential discussion.

All applications will be treated in the strictest confidence - but shortlisted candidates will demonstrate: the right experience in commercial construction, allowed to work in Australia, experience with a local builder, references and stable tenure.

If you're passionate about commercial construction and looking to enjoy your career again while delivering quality projects with a respected Queensland builder, we'd love to hear from you.
