Grow your career with a business that's scaling fast

AWCON is a rapidly growing civil construction contractor delivering complex projects across the mining and heavy industry sectors. With a proven track record on projects ranging from $1M to $100M+, we partner with Tier 1 clients across Australia and continue to expand our national footprint.

We're in an exciting phase of growth. We're winning more work, investing in our people and systems, and expanding into new regions. That growth creates real opportunities for the people who help drive it. We're building a talent pool of high-performing Project Managers who want to grow with a business, not just work for one.

The Opportunity

This isn't a maintenance role. It's an opportunity to take ownership of complex, high-value projects and help shape how AWCON delivers as we scale. As a Project Manager, you'll own project delivery from tender handover through to completion, driving outcomes across safety, programme, commercial performance and client satisfaction, while working closely with our executive and operations leadership team.

As the business grows, so does the scope of this role. High performers will have the chance to take on larger projects, broader portfolios and senior leadership responsibilities as new opportunities emerge.

What You'll Be Responsible For

- Taking ownership of end-to-end project delivery (scope, schedule, cost and risk) on projects with genuine scale and impact

- Leading high-performing site and project teams in a fast-paced FIFO environment

- Building and managing key client relationships, upholding Tier 1 delivery standards





- Driving commercial performance (cost control, forecasting and claims) with direct influence on project outcomes

- Partnering with senior leadership to align project strategy with broader business objectives

- Identifying risk early and delivering practical, outcome-focused solutions

- Coordinating subcontractors, suppliers and internal stakeholders to keep delivery on track

- Reporting on progress, commercial performance and safety outcomes to executive and operations leadership

- Championing safety, quality and operational discipline across the site

What We're Looking For

- 10+ years' experience in civil construction project delivery

- Demonstrated success delivering large-scale, complex infrastructure projects, including under cost plus and fixed price contract arrangements

- Strong commercial acumen with the ability to drive margin and control costs

- Confident leader who can build, motivate and influence their team

- Proven ability to manage Tier 1 client expectations and relationships

- Experience in a contractor environment (essential)

- Tertiary qualification in Engineering, Construction Management or similar (preferred)

- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced,



high-accountability environment

- Ambition to grow your career and take on greater responsibility as the business expands

What You'll Get

- Competitive salary package + FIFO benefits

- Clear career progression pathways into senior project, construction and leadership roles as the company scales
- The chance to grow with the business and help build its future, not just step into a fixed structure

- Opportunity to lead high-value, high-impact projects
- A robust and growing pipeline of secured work

- Direct access to leadership and genuine influence on how the business operates
- A performance-driven culture where results are recognised and rewarded

Why AWCON

We're building something here, not maintaining the status quo.

Joining AWCON now means getting in at a pivotal stage of our growth. The people who help us scale will be the ones who lead us into the future.

If you're a Project Manager who:

- Wants more ownership and accountability

- Wants to work on meaningful, complex projects

- Is driven by results and outcomes

- Wants a career that grows as fast as the business does

Then this is your opportunity to step into a role where you can make a real impact and build a long-term career.
