The Opportunity

This is an opportunity to join a well-established, growing business delivering high-quality, technically complex projects across commercial, government, and enterprise environments.

With a strong pipeline of work and continued growth, the team is looking for an experienced Senior Project Manager who can take ownership of complex projects while stepping into a leadership role, mentoring and developing a team of junior and mid-level Project Managers.

They are valued, developed, and trusted.

You will be joining a team where collaboration is natural,

- Share your expertise, introduce best practices and help others develop their project management capabilities
- Drive accountability, improve processes and ensure project deliverables are achieved
- Ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget and to a high standard
- Manage stakeholder communication across clients, internal teams and suppliers
- Coordinate resources, subcontractors and project timelines
- Attend site visits as required (primarily VIC, with some interstate travel)
- Monitor budgets, oversee project billing and drive strong commercial outcomes
- Work closely with senior leadership to continually improve team performance and project delivery
