This is an opportunity to join one of Australia's most respected structural steel contractors, delivering some of the country's most complex and high-profile projects. With a strong pipeline of secured work, the business continues to win landmark projects across stadiums, airports, transport infrastructure, defence and architecturally significant commercial developments. Their reputation has been built on delivery certainty, technical capability and long-term client relationships.
This isn't a role for someone who wants straightforward projects. These are large-scale developments with significant stakeholder scrutiny, where successful delivery relies just as much on communication, planning and leadership as it does technical expertise.
The Role
We're seeking an experienced Project Manager to oversee complex projects from award through to completion. You'll work closely with clients, builders, consultants, engineers, fabrication teams and site personnel, ensuring projects remain on track while proactively identifying risks, managing expectations and driving outcomes. Strong communication is non-negotiable. The best Project Managers in this business don't simply react to problems—they identify them months before they occur and develop solutions before issues impact programme, stakeholders or delivery.
What Success Looks Like
- Building trust with clients and stakeholders through regular communication
- Maintaining control of project outcomes, even when challenges arise
- Identifying risks early and implementing proactive solutions
- Driving coordination across multiple disciplines and delivery teams
- Creating confidence through transparency, accountability and leadership
- Keeping projects moving forward through strong planning and stakeholder management
The expectation isn't perfection. It's ensuring stakeholders are never surprised and projects remain under control.
What We're Looking For
- Proven Project Management experience within structural steel, commercial construction, engineering or major infrastructure projects
- Preferably 500T + End to end - manufacturing to erection
- Strong stakeholder and client management capability
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
- Ability to forecast risks and drive outcomes proactively
- Collaborative leadership style with a solutions-focused mindset
- Experience coordinating multiple teams across fabrication, engineering and site delivery environments highly regarded
Potential for interstate travel across Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. It will be limited.
Why This Opportunity?
- Landmark projects across Australia
- Strong pipeline of secured work
- High-performing and respected industry leader
- Supportive leadership with genuine autonomy
- Family-owned business with a long-term outlook
- Career progression opportunities within a growing organisation
