PROJECT MANAGER — SCAFFOLDING Cairns, QLD · Full-time

Run the job from the first phone call to the final invoice.

Instant Alloy has been putting up scaffolding across Far North Queensland since 2006 — residential, commercial and industrial, from single-storey jobs to multi-level builds. We're looking for a Project Manager to take end-to-end ownership of project delivery.

This isn't a coordinator role. You'll own the quote, the program, the crew, the margin and the close-out. If a job runs well, that's on you. If it doesn't, you're the one who sees it coming and fixes it.

What you'll actually be doing

- Managing scaffolding projects from quote acceptance through to completion and invoicing
- Planning labour, materials, equipment and transport, and keeping the schedule honest when site conditions change
- Being the point of contact for builders, contractors and site teams — site visits, meetings, straight answers • Preparing quotes, tracking budgets and margins, and picking up cost risk early rather than at close-out
- Spotting variations and additional works, and converting them
- Leading leading hands, scaffolders and yard crew — direction, priorities, performance, capability
- Reviewing drawings, scope and site requirements before a single standard goes in the ground
- Keeping SWMS, permits, handovers and site records complete and current




- Holding the safety line. WHS legislation, scaffold codes of practice, site inspections and incident response

What you'll need

- Advanced Scaffolding (CPCCLSF4001) — this one's non-negotiable
- Proven project management experience in scaffolding, construction or a closely related industry
- A real understanding of site coordination, workforce planning and what it takes to resource a job properly
- Experience managing budgets, margins and project performance — you can read a job's numbers, not just its program
- Strong WHS knowledge and the willingness to enforce it
- Current driver's licence and White Card

Handy but not essential: CPR (HLTAID009) and First Aid (HLTAID011).

What's on offer

- A permanent, full-time role with a business that's been in the Far North for twenty years
- Own gear, own yard, own trucks — you're not chasing a hire company in Brisbane when a program moves
- Real autonomy. You'll be trusted to run your projects, not asked to check in on every decision
- Company Vehicle & Phone
- Cairns-based. Live somewhere worth finishing work in.
