Your responsibilities will include:

  • Contributing to a culture of 'safety underpins everything we do'
  • Actively coordinating procurement and construction elements
  • Managing short and long-term construction planning for the works
  • Developing and monitoring KPIs and productivity analysis against program and budget
  • Liaising with subcontractors/suppliers and working with site personnel
  • Ensuring compliance with relevant legal and regulatory requirements and Company policies

To be successful in this role, you must have:

  • Relevant tertiary qualifications
  • Previous experience in commercial large construction projects
  • Demonstrated experience in planning and reporting against cost and time
  • Strong understanding of programme management, deadlines, and budget controls
  • Strong attitude and awareness of Safety
  • High-level verbal and written communication skills

This role offers a competitive remuneration package, including an attractive salary range of AU$120,000 - AU$180,000 per annum, depending on experience, plus benefits such as health and wellbeing programs, discount portals, and company-funded salary continuance insurance.
