DescriptionThe move into full project deliveryCitygreen's installation business is winning large projects across Sydney and NSW, and we need someone to run them.
This is full project delivery from day one.
You'll take installed projects from contract award to handover, run the subcontractors, hold the programme and protect the margin.
You'll also sit at the design table with landscape architects, engineers and councils, so you shape projects before they're drawn rather than just building what you're handed.A$115,000 to A$135,000 base plus superannuation, plus participation in Growth by Sharing.If you've built your career in landscape architecture or landscape construction, and spent enough time on site to know what goes wrong below ground, this is the step from supervising projects to owning them.About CitygreenCitygreen designs and supplies engineered systems that let trees and stormwater infrastructure thrive in hard urban spaces: StrataVault, StrataCell, InvisiGrate, DuraGrate and Urban Grove.
Our systems 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.
No competitor offers what we do.
