  • Develop and manage construction programs, methodologies, and resources.
  • Coordinate subcontractors, suppliers, and in-house service teams.
  • Maintain strong client, council, and consultant relationships through regular engagement and reporting.
  • Ensure all works are delivered to the highest standards of safety, quality, and environmental compliance.
  • Contribute to pricing and estimating on upcoming tenders, working closely with the commercial team.

Skills & Experience

  • 6–10 years' experience in civil construction, including proven success managing subdivision or land development projects.
  • Strong financial management skills, budgets, forecasting, contract administration.
  • Technical expertise in bulk earthworks, roads, drainage, utilities, and subdivision infrastructure.
  • Experience leading multidisciplinary teams across multiple project stages.
  • Strong client-facing and stakeholder management skills.
  • Safety-first mindset with excellent organisational ability.

Why Join?

  • Opportunity to lead major multi-stage residential and medium-density developments in South East Queensland.
  • Join a business with a strong pipeline of secured projects and long-term growth outlook.
  • Autonomy to run your projects with full support from regional hub offices.
