This is an excellent opportunity to join a business that offers the support, structure, and mentoring typically associated with larger organisations, while maintaining the collaborative culture and stability of a privately owned company.

- Exposure to a diverse portfolio of commercial projects
- Supportive leadership and mentoring from experienced construction professionals
- Strong company culture with excellent staff retention
- Opportunity to build a long-term career within a growing business
The Role
Reporting directly to the Construction Manager, you will take ownership of the successful delivery of commercial mechanical services projects from commencement through to handover.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing mechanical projects valued up to $3 million
- Coordinating and leading direct labour and subcontractor teams
- Overseeing procurement activities and programme delivery
- Managing project budgets, forecasting, and cost control
- Maintaining strong relationships with builders, consultants, and clients
- Ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time, and within budget
- Collaborating closely with estimating, engineering, and construction teams

About You
To be successful in this role, you will bring:

- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
- A proactive attitude with a genuine desire to develop into larger-scale project delivery
This role is ideal for a Project Manager who enjoys being hands-on, values stability, and wants a clearly defined pathway into larger and more technically complex projects.
