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.
About the Role
Working alongside the General Manager and Construction Manager, you'll be responsible for the successful commercial and operational delivery of your projects from pre-construction through to completion. The business operates with a lean internal structure consisting of Project Managers, Contract Administration and Site Management.
Your responsibilities will include:
- End-to-end management of commercial construction projects
- Managing project budgets, forecasting and commercial performance
- 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
- Confidence dealing directly with clients, consultants and subcontractors
- The ability to travel regularly to Toowoomba if Brisbane based
Candidates from interstate or other regions are encouraged to apply, provided you have strong knowledge of Australian building codes and standards.
Benefits
- Fully maintained vehicle with personal use
- Diverse project pipeline across multiple sectors
- Flexibility to work between the Brisbane office and Toowoomba projects
- Relocation assistance open for discussion
- Lean team structure with genuine project ownership
- Long-term opportunity with an established Queensland builder
If you're a commercially minded Construction Project Manager looking for greater ownership, a diverse project pipeline and flexibility around where you're based, I'd be keen to have a confidential conversation.
