Senior PM - Construction Manager
Major Contractor | Major Projects | People Leadership | Senior Career Opportunity
There are plenty of senior HVAC construction roles in the market. This one offers something a little different.
My client is one of Australia's largest and most established HVAC contractors, with the project capability, internal resources and pipeline you would expect from a business operating at this level.
They are looking for an experienced HVAC construction professional who can take a senior role within their major projects business, with a strong focus on
project delivery, people leadership and developing high-performing teams
.
This opportunity could suit either:
An experienced
Major Projects Manager or Senior Project Manager
ready to move quickly into Construction Management; or
An existing
Construction Manager
looking for a larger, well-resourced business with significant project scale and long-term opportunity.
For the right Senior Project Manager, there is a
clear and relatively quick pathway into Construction Management
.
For an established Construction Manager, the attraction is the opportunity to lead people and projects within a major contractor offering strong internal support, major projects and an excellent forward workload.
The role
Depending on your experience, you will take responsibility for either major project delivery or broader construction leadership across multiple projects.
A significant part of the role will be
people management
— supporting, mentoring and developing Project Managers and site teams while ensuring the business continues to deliver consistently strong project outcomes.
Responsibilities will include:
Leading major commercial HVAC construction projects
Managing and developing Project Managers and site delivery teams
Mentoring staff and helping build capability across the construction team
Setting expectations,



providing direction and holding teams accountable
Overseeing programme, commercial performance and project outcomes
Supporting Project Managers with commercial and operational decision-making
Building solid relationships with builders, consultants and key stakeholders
Ensuring appropriate project resources are in place
Maintaining high standards across safety, quality and delivery
Working closely with senior management across the wider business
Why consider it?
The key attraction is the combination of
scale, people leadership, career progression and long-term opportunity
.
My client can offer:
A clear pathway into Construction Management for a high-performing Senior PM
A genuine leadership role for an existing Construction Manager
The opportunity to lead, mentor and develop a strong project delivery team
Major, high-profile HVAC construction projects
Significant internal engineering, drafting and project support
An experienced senior management team
Strong long-term project security and forward workload
Outstanding and negotiable salary package to attract the right person
About you
You will have strong experience delivering large commercial HVAC construction projects and be comfortable taking responsibility for complex projects, teams and client relationships.
Importantly, you will also be a strong
people manager
.
You will know how to get the best from Project Managers and site teams, provide support when required, set clear expectations and develop people rather than simply manage projects yourself.
You may already be operating as a Construction Manager, or you may be one of the stronger Senior Project Managers or Major Projects Managers in the market and ready to step into broader leadership.
Either way, this role is aimed at someone who wants to operate at the senior end of the HVAC construction market and have a genuine influence over both
major project delivery and the people delivering those projects
.
