UGL is delivering a complex brownfield rail construction project in a live operational environment. This is the kind of work where smart planning, tight integration, and clear decision‑making are critical to success.
The project involves staged configuration changes delivered within defined possession windows, with multiple delivery streams operating in parallel. It’s challenging, high‑impact work — and we’re looking for someone who knows how to pull it all together.
As the Integrated Stage Works Manager, you’ll lead the strategic planning and integration of stage works across all delivery streams to ensure critical scope is sequenced, risk‑managed, and delivered within Base Track Possession Schedule windows to achieve nominated Configuration Changes.
Your focus will be bringing clarity to complex staging challenges, aligning disciplines around a single forward‑looking plan, and making sure the project is genuinely ready to go when it matters.
This role will be based in Beenleigh.
Key Responsibilities
Lead the strategic planning and integration of stage works across all delivery streams
Coordinate sequencing of critical scope to align with possession windows and access constraints
Maintain a clear, integrated strategy that supports safe and efficient brownfield delivery
Establish and manage transparent Go / No‑Go criteria for stage execution
Drive strong readiness reporting and proactive risk identification
Assess changes that impact scope, staging or possessions, and clearly articulate risk / benefit outcomes
Work closely with construction, engineering, access, commissioning and project leadership teams
Support confident decision‑making through clear communication and practical recommendations
Why You’d Want this Job This role puts you at the centre of delivery. You’ll be trusted to lead strategy, influence outcomes, and work directly with senior project leaders to solve real, on‑the‑ground problems.
Genuine ownership of staging, readiness, and integration outcomes
A high‑profile brownfield rail project with real complexity
The opportunity to shape strategy — not just follow a plan
A practical, collaborative team that values transparent thinking
