Assistant Project Manager, Redevelopment

Your Role St John of God Subiaco Hospital

Be Part of a Landmark Transformation in Healthcare St John of God Subiaco Hospital, Western Australia's oldest private hospital, is undergoing its most ambitious transformation to date — a multi-stage redevelopment that will deliver a world-class hospital campus. This landmark project is redefining private healthcare through a strong focus on innovation, sustainability, clinical excellence, and patient-centred care.

As part of this exciting journey, we are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Assistant Project Manager to support the internal redevelopment team. This role will work closely with caregivers, consultants, contractors, and key stakeholders to contribute to all aspects of the redevelopment — including design coordination, authority approvals, construction delivery, reporting, and commissioning.

With construction of the Stage 3 New Clinical Building scheduled from 2026 to 2028, this is a rare opportunity to be part of one of Australia's largest private hospital redevelopments. The Assistant Project Manager will play a key role in supporting the planning, management, and delivery of project outcomes, ensuring alignment with agreed timeframes, quality standards, and budget parameters — all within the dynamic environment of a live hospital campus.

Please learn more about the journey so far on the Subiaco Hospital Redevelopment website.
