Role Description

We're looking for an Associate Director to oversee the end-to-end delivery of new build, refurbishment, and redevelopment projects across our Aviation Sector. This includes both landside and airside projects.

Located in our Melbourne Airport office, you'll be responsible for delivering a range of major building and civil projects. You'll also have team leadership responsibilities, and will oversee:

  • The management of PMs and SPMs, including project performance and client engagement.
  • The end-to-end delivery of building and infrastructure projects.
  • Fostering relationships with key stakeholders and clients, and/or winning work.
  • Engaging with contractors and consultants, including managing the construction process in complex, live environments.
  • Overseeing contract management, variations and claims.

Candidate Profile

To be successful in this role, you'll ideally have demonstrated experience as a Project Director, Associate Director, or similar role in the Aviation (Airport) sector. This could include working for an Airport itself, a Consultancy or a Contractor that services the Aviation sector. If your experience is not from the Aviation Sector, then Ports, Health, Retail or other similarly complex sectors would also be considered.

You'll also need:

  • Strong communication skills and an ability to build rapport with clients, team members and stakeholders.
  • The ability to manage up and down – leading your team of direct reports, as well as updating the Director, Executive Director and ELT as appropriate.
  • High attention to detail with a customer-focused mindset. Relationship building is crucial in this role.
  • A willingness to grow the team and support the Director, whilst delivering outstanding outcomes for clients.
  • A desire to contribute to the overall growth of the business.
  • Qualifications in Project Management, Construction, Architecture, Building, Design, Engineering or related discipline.

What's In It For You

This role is a great opportunity for someone looking to deliver complex Aviation projects, whilst also leading staff, mentoring and driving business development activities. You'll be delivering some of the most complex, high-profile projects available, whilst working with a team who truly cares about the work they do.

As an Associate Director At RPI, you'll receive phenomenal support from our leadership team. You'll play an integral part in shaping the development of your career, as well as the careers of other staff members.

You'll also receive:

  • A broad range of exciting projects to deliver, including buildings and civil works.
  • Ongoing career development and progression opportunities. Upon joining RPI, you'll receive your own tailored Professional Development Plan.
  • A strong, supportive management team that cares about you and prioritises staff development.
  • A fun, vibrant culture - including a brand new office. We work hard, and we all have fun along the way doing it.
  • Access to short courses and classes with our external training partner, Go1.
  • Access to events, activities and initiatives driven by our Health & Wellbeing + Diversity & Inclusion committees.
  • Free and confidential access to our Employee Assistance Program.
