The Opportunity

Join a team shaping the next generation of airport and industrial infrastructure across Victoria. We're seeking a passionate and driven client-side Senior Project Manager to lead the delivery of airport developments — including terminal precincts, gates and lounge upgrades, updating baggage systems, carparks, and the like — while also contributing to high-impact industrial projects such as business parks and logistic hubs.

As Senior Project Manager, you'll oversee budgets, timelines, design consultants, contractors, and stakeholders, ensuring every project meets the highest standards of quality and safety. You'll play a key leadership role — mentoring junior staff, fostering collaboration, and building trusted relationships with clients and partners.

• Proven leadership skills — mentoring, team collaboration
• Excelling written & interpersonal communication in the context of stakeholder management

• Organised, proactive, and focused on delivering quality outcomes on time and within budget
