Job Type: Permanent - Full Time

Location: Sydney

Job Category: Construction

Construction has been Buildcorp's core business for over 30 years and we take pride in finding the best solutions for our customers, putting our values into action every day. Our difference comes from who we are and what we stand for. How we treat our people, partners, and community matters to each of us.

Buildcorp's real difference is three decades of success: passionate staff, loyal customers, industry leading systems, award winning projects, supportive suppliers, and a reputation to be proud of. Our Remedial & Facade business is one of Australia's leading remedial builders and a specialist provider of facade replacement.

Benefits

On top of joining a supportive and positive culture, you'll receive:

- Career development customised to you
- Additional paid leave options
- Employee referral bonus
- Access to personal and financial counselling services
- The opportunity to give back with our Buildcorp Foundation
- Access to rugby tickets in season

The Opportunity As Construction Manager you will lead the delivery of our Remedial & Facade project portfolio — safe, high quality and profitable projects from conversion, through construction, to handover, finalisation and review. You'll maximise client satisfaction, minimise construction risk and drive the financial result across the business unit. Remedial construction is a discipline of its own. Scopes change once a building is opened up, the site is rarely empty, and the client is often a strata committee, an asset owner or an insurer rather than a developer. Leading well here means balancing engineering rigour, commercial discipline and a calm, credible presence with residents, owners and consultants — while running a high volume of concurrent projects across structural repair, waterproofing and facade replacement.

Reporting to the Construction Director,



you'll lead our Project Managers, Site Managers, Project Supervisors, Contracts Managers, Project Engineers, and Design Managers and work alongside an engineering-led leadership team spanning construction, pre-construction, commercial and estimating.

Desired Skills And Experience The successful applicant will be responsible for:

- Ensuring a practice of safety compliance exists across every project in line with the Buildcorp Health, Safety and Environment Manual and HSE policies — with particular leadership on high-risk activities including work at heights (swing stages, BMUs, scaffold and rope access), hazardous materials removal, and the separation of works from residents and the public.
- Guiding the tender process: reviewing and improving construction methodologies that win work — staging, access and live-environment planning — and attending tender interviews, client meetings and business development functions.
- Overseeing financial management of all projects in the business unit, including expenditure against budget, forecasting, and the rigorous management of variations and latent conditions to protect margin.
- Overseeing planning and programming on every project, ensuring comprehensive project plans and construction programmes are in place before commencement, and conducting regular programme audits to validate on-site status and reporting.




- Leading and mentoring Project Managers and project teams to achieve project and individual goals — running regular reviews against key deliverables, giving transparent performance feedback, and acting swiftly on unsatisfactory performance.
- Representing the business with clients, strata committees, building managers, consulting engineers and industry bodies, and continually marketing our capability through current and completed projects.

To succeed in this role, you will have:

- Significant construction delivery experience (typically 15+ years), including a proven track record at Construction Manager, Project Director or Senior Project Manager level with a Tier 1 or Tier 2 builder or a specialist remedial contractor.
- Experience in remedial, facade, restoration, structural repair or complex refurbishment in live environments is highly regarded. We will also consider outstanding construction leaders from commercial building who can demonstrate the judgement to lead in a remedial setting.
- A tertiary qualification in construction management, engineering or a related discipline, or equivalent industry experience.
- Strong commercial acumen, with demonstrated accountability for portfolio-level financial outcomes, forecasting and the management of variations and contractual risk.

What we offer A senior leadership role in a specialist business with genuine technical depth are part of the portfolio here. You'll join an established, engineering-led leadership team, backed by the systems, governance and community focus of a national family-owned group. You'll have real influence over how projects are won, delivered and finished across the business unit, and the support to build the team to do it.

If you're an experienced construction leader who wants to shape the delivery of one of Australia's leading remedial builders, we'd love to hear from you.

Please APPLY NOW if you have the relevant experience and skills.
