At Unita, we build spaces where people love to work, shop, stay and connect – from high-end retail and hospitality, to health and commercial fitouts across Australia. But great spaces don't build themselves. Great teams do.
People have always been at the heart of what we do. From humble beginnings to national growth, our ambition has never outweighed our values. We're fuelled by a shared passion to build better, together.
About The Role
We're looking for a Project Manager to lead the delivery of commercial fitout projects from award through to handover. Coordinating site teams, subcontractors, consultants and clients to keep every project moving safely, on time, on budget, and to a standard we're proud to put our name on.
You'll be the one making the calls day to day: spotting risks early, keeping budgets and programmes under control, and making sure the right people are aligned before small issues become expensive ones.
It's a hands-on role that combines site delivery with commercial and client management, and it comes with real ownership - from the first site walk to a clean, professional handover.

Leading the successful delivery of commercial fitout projects from pre-start through to handover

Who Thrives In This Role
You're someone who enjoys bringing order to complexity.
You know that successful projects aren't just about programmes and budgets. They're about creating confidence for clients, for site teams and for everyone involved.
