Job Description
Overview
Karan & Co are currently working in an exclusive search partnership for an experienced Project Manager ready to step up into an Operations Manager position – taking ownership of modular installs across Queensland, from tendering through to delivery.
This is your chance to join a rapid-scaling modular construction business, where projects move quickly, systems are evolving, and your leadership will have real impact.
From classrooms to community facilities, you'll be delivering work that matters while enjoying the lifestyle benefits of staying mostly local.
Why This Role Stands Out
Career progression – move from Project Manager into an Operations Manager role with full commercial accountability and projects across education, defence and health that are consistently expanding.
Frontline of modular – be part of an industry shift that's changing how projects are delivered
Lifestyle balance – mostly local projects, limited overnight travel, home on weekends
Impactful projects – deliver education and government facilities that support Queensland communities
What You'll Bring
Project management experience (Tier-3 or strong Tier-2 builder) with fast-paced program delivery
End-to-end accountability including tendering, estimating, and commercial ownership
Strong leadership skills with the ability to develop and guide Site Supervisors
Stable career history with a track record of delivering results
Education/governmentproject experience highly regarded; modular desirable but not essential
This role is a genuine step forward – giving you the autonomy to run projects from tendering to delivery, lead a growing team, and shape repeatable systems in a sector that's transforming construction.
