WE’RE HIRING
Construction Project Manager – North Queensland
Townsville, QLD | Full-Time | Attractive Salary Package + Performance Bonus
Based in Townsville, or currently in Brisbane / Sunshine Coast and ready to relocate
This Isn’t a Standard Project Management Role
We’re looking for a Project Manager who wants ownership, and the chance to help build something.
Plexxcon is growing its North Queensland office, and we need a Project Manager who will lead projects in the region and play a key part in establishing our presence, relationships and reputation in Townsville and beyond.
Someone who takes pride in their work, enjoys building strong relationships, makes decisions with confidence, and treats every project as if it were their own business.
At Plexxcon, you’ll have the autonomy to lead projects your way, backed by the systems, support, and team you need to succeed.
We deliver complex construction projects ranging from $250K to $15M across Queensland, working within live operational environments including hospitals, universities, schools, retail centres, sports clubs, industrial facilities, and high-end commercial spaces.
Our clients don’t stop operating while we build.
That means communication matters. Planning matters. Relationships matter. Every decision has an impact.
If you’re the type of Project Manager who thrives in that environment, and wants to be part of growing a regional business from the ground up, we’d like to talk.
Help Grow Our North Queensland Office
This role is about more than delivering projects. You’ll be one of the key people shaping how Plexxcon operates in North Queensland.
That means building relationships with local clients, consultants, subcontractors and suppliers, winning repeat work, and helping grow the team as the office expands. As NQ grows, so does the opportunity for the people who helped build it.
Already in Brisbane or the Sunshine Coast?
If you’re based in South East Queensland and have been thinking about a move north, this is the opportunity. You’ll have the backing of our established SEQ team and leadership while you set up in Townsville, and we’ll work with you on timing that makes the move practical.
What You’ll Get
Real Ownership
You will be trusted to run your projects from start to finish. Structure your team how you see fit. You’ll lead the programme, manage the budget, build client relationships, oversee delivery, and drive outcomes. We provide the framework and support.
You’ll provide the leadership.
Autonomy with Support
We believe great Project Managers perform best when they’re empowered to make decisions. You’ll have the freedom to lead your projects while being backed by experienced leadership and a team committed to your success, even from a distance.
Performance-Based Rewards
Our Project Manager Bonus Scheme is designed to reward results. Protect margins, build repeat business, lead successful teams, and consistently deliver exceptional outcomes, and you’ll share in that success. When the business wins, our people win.
Projects That Challenge and Develop You
Our projects are diverse, technically challenging, and often delivered within occupied environments where stakeholder management is just as important as construction expertise. No two projects are the same.
A Team and Culture You’ll Actually Enjoy
We’re serious about performance, but we’re equally reliable about building a workplace people want to be part of. We back our people through the values that drive everything we do:
Relationships – We value strong relationships with our clients, subcontractors, suppliers, and each other. Construction is a people business, and we never lose sight of that.
Hustle – We move quickly, take ownership, and don’t wait to be told what needs to be done.
Solutions – Complex projects require smart thinking, collaboration, and problem solving, not finger-pointing.
Provide Value – We deliver quality outcomes that make commercial sense. We understand why our clients choose us and work hard to earn that trust every day.
We invest in our culture as much as our projects. Team BBQs, social events throughout the year, and a leadership team that is accessible and actively involved create an environment where people genuinely enjoy coming to work and take pride in what they deliver. That culture comes north with us.
Annual Reviews and Career Development
We don’t believe in leaving career progression to chance. Every team member participates in annual performance and development reviews, providing an chance to discuss career goals,
professional development, remuneration, and future growth within the business. As our North Queensland office grows, there’s real scope to grow with it.
Bring Your CA With You
If you’ve built a strong working relationship with a Contracts Administrator and believe you’re a better team together, we’re open to the conversation. Great teams don’t happen by accident. If you’re a PM and CA combination that consistently delivers results, and you’re both keen on North Queensland, we’d love to hear from both of you.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re seeking a Project Manager who:
✓ Has successfully delivered commercial construction projects from commencement through to completion
✓ Can demonstrate outcomes, not just project names on a resume
✓ Thrives on accountability and takes ownership of project performance
✓ Has experience managing projects within live operational environments
✓ Builds strong relationships with clients, consultants, subcontractors, and project teams
✓ Understands budgets, programmes, procurement, risk management, and commercial outcomes
✓ Communicates clearly, solves problems proactively, and leads by example
✓ Is based in Townsville, or is ready to relocate there in the near future
✓ Wants to help grow a regional office, not just fill a seat in one
✓ Local North Queensland industry networks are highly regarded
This Role Probably Isn’t for You If:
- You prefer to be directed every step of the way
- You need a big team around you every day to stay on track
- You avoid difficult conversations or challenging situations
- You struggle with accountability
- You’re looking for a role where you can simply maintain the status quo
- You view subcontractors and clients as transactions rather than long-term relationships
What Happens Next
We’re not interested in generic applications.
Instead, tell us:
- What project are you most proud of and why?
- Who would back you? Provide two referees we can genuinely speak with.
- Why Plexxcon? Why North Queensland? Why now?
- Where are you based today? If you’d be relocating, what timing works for you?
- If you’re bringing a Contracts Administrator with you, tell us about them too.
If you’re looking for a role where you’ll be trusted, challenged, rewarded, and given the opportunity to make a genuine impact in a growing region, we’d like to hear from you.
