West Crane Services (WCS) is a 100% Australian-owned, family business and Victoria's largest crane service and installation company. Established in ****, we design, manufacture, install, and service overhead cranes and lifting equipment for industrial and commercial clients across Australia. With branches in Truganina and Dandenong with a growing team — and we're looking for an experienced Project Manager to help us deliver our biggest and best projects yet.
The Role
As Project Manager, you'll own our overhead crane manufacture and installation projects from the moment they're handed over — right through to completion. You'll work closely with our Operations Manager and Project Engineer, taking full responsibility for scheduling, site mobilisation, installation, and delivering a excellent experience for our customers.
You'll be the driving force behind getting projects out the door on time, on budget, and to the standard our customers expect.
What you'll be doing
Taking ownership of projects from handover through to completion, as the single point of accountability
Acting as the primary point of contact for customers — including attending site for measurements and progress updates
Developing and managing the schedule across all projects and production




Planning and managing site mobilisation, installation, freight, and cranage
Managing the fabrication shop schedule and working closely with the workshop team
Responsibility for project QA — on site and in the workshop — alongside our Project Engineer
Reporting project status regularly to the Operations Manager
What we're looking for
Proven experience in project management — ideally in crane, steel fabrication, or industrial installation
A background managing steel fabrication or installation projects end-to-end
Excellent customer service and stakeholder management skills
Experience coordinating site works, freight, cranage, and contractors
The ability to juggle multiple concurrent projects and competing priorities
A trade, engineering, or project management background (formal PM qualifications a bonus, not essential)
A current driver's licence
Join a well-established, growing, family-owned Victorian business
Be part of a close-knit, experienced team across two branches
Genuine ownership of projects — see your work through from start to finish
Company vehicle and competitive salary package
