Job Description

At Perway Construction Services, we're not your average builder. Based in Greenwood, we specialise in high-performance, energy-productive homes, renovations, extensions and EcoPods, using timber frame construction and passive house principles.

n

We care just as much about the client experience as we do about the final product. Our clients choose us because they want a home built properly, not just quickly.

n

Now, we're looking for a Project Manager / Senior Site Supervisor who thinks the same way.

n

This is not a role for someone who reacts. It is for someone who leads.

n

The Role

n

You will own 3 to 6 active residential projects end-to-end, covering new builds, renovations, granny flats and EcoPods, from prestart through to handover. You split your time between site and office, and you are equally sharp at both.

n

What you will be responsible for

n

n
- Full financial ownership from day one. Trade quote reviews, PO approvals, timesheets, WIP tracking and cost-to-complete reporting. No surprises at the end.
n
- Preparing and maintaining look-ahead schedules that actually get followed. You do not react to delays, you see them coming.
n
- Coordinating trades with precision. Your sites run smoothly because you are across the detail before anyone has to ask.
n
- Keeping clients informed, confident and positive. Clear communication on variations, approvals secured before work proceeds, and clients are never chasing you for an update.
n
- Weekly project reports: percentage completion, WIP status, cost-to-complete. Accurate. On time. Every time.
n
- Negotiating with suppliers and subcontractors to protect margin without compromising the build quality Perway is known for.
n




- Owning your admin. Records, photos, documentation, system updates, without being managed.
n
- Using Wunderbuild and SharePoint consistently and accurately.
n
- Contributing to how Perway improves. If you see a better way, say so.
n

n

Who You Are

n

You are a structured, commercially sharp PM who knows that a well-run project is a financially controlled project. You plan properly, write clearly, and your admin does not fall behind.

n

n
- Certificate III in Carpentry
n
- White Card, Driver Licence and First Aid Certificate
n
- Proven residential construction experience with demonstrated budget accountability
n
- Strong scheduling and planning capability, not just awareness of it
n
- Strong communication skills with trades, clients, suppliers and office team members
n
- Confident with phones, apps, emails, photos, construction management software and digital workflows
n
- Ability to read plans, specs, and scopes with confidence
n
- Minimum 3 years of residential construction supervision experience
n
- Excellent time management and organisational skills
n
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to high standards of quality and workmanship
n
- Team Player and proactive attitude and willingness to take ownership
n

n

Preferred

n

n




- Diploma of Building and Construction will be highly regarded
n
- Passive House or passive building experience
n
- Pro Clima wrapping training (or genuine interest in completing it)
n
- Wunderbuild experience or similar software
n
- Granny flat or modular dwelling delivery experience
n

n

Hard no

n

Hard no: If you avoid admin, need constant follow-up or are chasing others to find out what is happening on your own sites, this is not your role.

n

What Perway Offers

n

n
- $110,000 to $140,000 + super, based on experience and what you actually bring to the table
n
- Performance bonus of up to $15,000 per year, tied to project delivery, margin protection and client outcomes
n
- Direct access to the business owner. No corporate layers, no politics.
n
- Personal development coaching with a recognised business coach, built into the role, not a perk on paper.
n
- A team that takes the craft seriously. Passive House, EcoPods, timber frame done right.
n
- Exposure to one of Perth's most progressive residential construction methods.
n
- Involvement in Build It Forward, our registered charity.
n
- A family business growing fast that wants you to grow with it.
n
- Family friendly and supportive work environment
n

n

How to Apply

n

In your cover letter, tell us about a project you managed where the budget or schedule was under pressure. What did you do, and what was the outcome?

n

Applications without a cover letter will not be reviewed.

n

Shortlisted candidates will be asked to provide references before interview.

n

We hire for character as much as capability. Expect us to ask about both.
