What You'll Bring
  • 10+ years in construction project delivery with senior PM or operational leadership experience
  • Deep understanding of project lifecycle across D&C and tender builds
  • Familiarity with SDA or other compliance-heavy residential/commercial builds
  • Proven ability to lead project teams and build scalable systems
  • Strong commercial acumen and stakeholder management skills
  • Knowledge of compliance standards
  • Experience with platforms such as Click, SharePoint, and construction workflow tools
Why Join Us?
  • Influence change: Be part of our commercial restructure and help shape the next chapter
  • Leadership with purpose: Deliver projects that directly impact people's quality of life
  • Values-led environment: We prioritise integrity, care, and collaboration in everything we do
  • Real growth opportunities: Build systems, grow a team, and make a tangible mark
  • Work-life balance: Monday–Friday role with minimal weekend work

This is a rare opportunity to step into a strategic leadership role within a purpose-driven organisation. If you're passionate about high-quality delivery, leading teams, and improving lives — we'd love to hear from you.
