A rare opportunity to lead complex remote construction projects from end to end.

We've been engaged to find a genuine senior construction leader to take full ownership of a major remote project valued at $80M+. This is not a coordinator-style role, it's a project leadership appointment for someone with the instincts, presence and commercial sharpness to drive a sophisticated, multi-front project with confidence.

The project

This is a genuinely demanding environment, multiple concurrent work fronts, staged construction, significant refurbishment works within an operating facility, live operational interfaces, and sophisticated client and consultant stakeholders. It also carries a large volume of externally developed architectural and engineering documentation that demands disciplined management and execution.

In short, sequencing, planning, interfaces and responsiveness are everything. The successful candidate will effectively live in the programme.

The role

Reporting into senior leadership and fully dedicated to this single project, you'll take complete ownership of delivery, safety, quality, schedule, cost and team morale. You'll be Perth-based with regular multi-day site visits each fortnight.

You'll be exceptionally strong across:

Programme development, sequencing and schedule management

Driving construction delivery in line with programme

Managing multiple work fronts simultaneously

Client and stakeholder management at a sophisticated level

Commercial control and awareness





Structured reporting and transparent communication

Subcontractor management

Leading multidisciplinary project teams

A properly resourced leadership role

This is a well-supported appointment. You'll lead a full dedicated project team including Project Engineers, Project Controllers, Schedulers, QA and HSE personnel, Supervisors, multiple Site Managers, Contract Administration support and a newly appointed Commercial Manager. The structure is there, we need the leader to drive it.

About you

10+ years' construction industry experience

Strong commercial acumen and excellent leadership capability

Proven track record delivering large, complex, highly coordinated projects with multiple stakeholders and operational constraints

Strong client-facing skills and the composure to operate calmly and decisively under pressure

Tertiary qualifications in Construction, Engineering, Project Management or similar

Ideal backgrounds include remote/mining infrastructure, accommodation villages, industrial, defence, or sophisticated commercial construction. We're open to candidates beyond mining, what matters is that you've delivered complex, coordinated projects successfully.

Personality is key. We're looking for someone well planned and considered, confident without arrogance, a natural leader who delegates effectively and creates confidence with both clients and internal teams. The real deal.
