Description
About Citygreen
Citygreen designs and supplies engineered systems that let trees and stormwater infrastructure thrive in hard urban spaces.
Our products, including StrataVault, StrataCell, InvisiGrate, DuraGrate and Urban Grove, are specified by landscape architects, engineers and councils across Australia and North America.
We don't just supply.
We install, and our installation business is growing faster than our delivery team.
That's why this role exists.
The role
We're looking for a Project Delivery Manager to run delivery of our installed projects across Greater Sydney and NSW.
You'll take projects from contract award to handover: engaging and supervising installation subcontractors, holding the programme, pricing variations as they come up, and protecting margin against the estimate.
You'll also be the person who makes sure our systems go into the ground the way they were designed.
That means reviewing installations against approved drawings, running pre-installation meetings, owning the quality record, and catching problems before they get buried.
This is a hands-on role.
It won't suit someone who manages from a desk and waits to be asked.
What you'll do
Project delivery
Plan and run delivery of installed projects from contract award to handover
Engage, brief and supervise installation subcontractors on our piece-rate model, and help build out our Sydney subcontractor panel
Own programme, scope and variations.
Identify and price variations before the work proceeds, not after
Protect project gross margin against the costed estimate
Manage site safety obligations with subcontractors and the principal contractor
Run project close-out and lessons learned, and feed what you learn back into estimating
Construction review and quality
Review installations against approved drawings: levels, dimensions,



soil volumes, compaction, layering and connections
Own BuildPass review for your projects.
Approve or reject evidence, raise non-conformances, and verify that corrective action holds
Keep the photographic and inspection record complete enough to defend a warranty claim
Pre-construction and coordination
Run pre-installation meetings covering sequencing, materials, tolerances and inspection points
Brief contractors who are current to Citygreen systems
Check drawing packages are buildable before they reach site, and send them back to our Design Studio when they aren't
Coordinate with landscape architects, civil and stormwater engineers, utilities, councils, Sydney Water and Transport for NSW, so conflicts are found on paper rather than in the trench
Back up our sales team on technical questions at design and specification stage
Requirements
What you'll bring
5+ years in the landscape industry, with training in landscape architecture, landscape technology or landscape construction.
Civil construction backgrounds are also considered
Hands-on site supervision of landscape installation, as a site supervisor, construction manager or contractor-side project manager.
A landscape architect with substantial construction administration and site experience is equally welcome
Practical knowledge of excavation, compaction, drainage and soil profiles, and how pavement, utilities and tree soil interact below ground.




We'll test this at interview
A track record of directing landscape or civil crews and holding them to scope and quality
Confidence reading and marking up landscape and civil plan sets: levels, sections, soil and drainage details, utilities and pavement build-ups
Accountability for programme, variations or margin on at least one real project
Clear written communication.
Credible with landscape architects and engineers, firm with contractors
A current driver's licence and willingness to travel regularly within NSW
Nice to have
Experience with soil cells, structural soil or similar systems (StrataVault, Silva Cell or equivalent)
Urban tree planting and establishment: tree pits, structural soils, irrigation
Construction QA platforms such as BuildPass or Procore
AutoCAD or Civil 3D viewing and markup
Knowledge of NSW council works, Sydney Water and road authority requirements
An existing Sydney landscape subcontractor network
HubSpot or NetSuite experience
How we work
We hire for three things as much as for experience.
Hungry.
You see the next problem on a project and go after it without being asked.
Humble.
You give credit to the installers and the design team, take a drawing correction without defensiveness, and say early when something is going wrong.
Smart with people.
You speak the specifier's language at design stage and the installer's language on site.
You can tell a contractor their work isn't acceptable and keep the relationship.
Benefits
What we offer
Competitive ase salary plus superannuation, depending on experience
Participation in Growth by Sharing
A role with real ownership in a business that's growing its installation offer, working with an engaged leadership team that's close to the work
