Most civil jobs wind down in December. This one winds up.

I'm Andrew from Itch. A civil contractor has won the earthworks on a wind farm that will help power one of Australia's biggest gold mines, and they need a Project Manager to run it.

You live by the program, so here's this one.

PROJECT PROGRAM: REV 0

MILESTONE 0: AWARD (what's in it for you)

- Up to $200K + super, plus a 20% STI
- 8/6 FIFO. Six days home every swing
- Expected to be permanent, not a six-month contract
- Your project, end to end, from mobilisation to defects

MILESTONE 1: MOBILISATION, DECEMBER One to two months with a crew of around 20: 14 operators plus engineering, fitters and supervisors. Site clearing, turbine pad prep and plenty of bulk earthworks.

MILESTONES 2 AND 3: THE RAMP UP

Two bigger stages, and the team grows to around 45. You'll:

- Own the program, budget, forecasts and cost reporting
- Run the contract: variations, progress claims, EOTs
- Front the client, consultants, subbies and authorities
- Line up plant, people and materials with the site team




- Keep safety and quality first, every shift
- Develop your Project Engineer into the next you

MILESTONE 4: PRACTICAL COMPLETION Five to six months in. Then, instead of updating your CV, you roll onto the next project.

CRITICAL PATH (the must haves)

- Proven Civil Project Manager with robust bulk earthworks
- Civil mining or remote projects, ideally FIFO
- You've scaled a crew from 20 to 45 and held the program
- Solid on AS 4000, AS 2124 or similar
- WA driver's licence and White Card
- Bonus points: a civil engineering or construction management degree

You'd rather walk the pads than read about them, and you're just as sharp in a cost report.

SUBMISSION

Hit apply with your CV and a line on the biggest earthworks job you've run. I'll call for a confidential chat, then it's straight to the client.
