This role will suit you if you enjoy being trusted to run your patch and want exposure across the full project lifecycle, not just one slice of it. You’re comfortable switching between PC, CA and PM responsibilities, keeping projects moving, solving problems before they escalate and presenting well with clients, consultants and subcontractors.
Day to day, you’ll be coordinating high-end renovation projects valued between $500k and $3 million, all located in Melbourne’s inner, affluent suburbs within a 20km radius. The work is varied and hands-on, from procurement, cost tracking and contract administration through to on-site coordination, programme management and supporting delivery outcomes. There’s also scope to help refine systems and processes as the business continues to mature, making this a role with real influence rather than just task execution.
You’ll be working closely with the approachable Director, who has over a decade of experience across high-end residential and commercial construction, project management and property development. The company deliberately limits its workload to one or two projects at a time, which means quality, detail and client experience always come first. You’ll be supported by an in-house team of builders and carpenters, along with a trusted subcontractor and consultant network.
To be considered, you’ll need at least 2-3 years’ experience working for a head contractor or very similar in high-end residential or high-end commercial. You’re organised, commercially aware and comfortable taking ownership, while also being professional and polished in front of clients. Flexibility is built in, with the option to split your time between site and working from home, depending on project needs.
The salary package is up to $140k, depending on experience, with the opportunity to grow alongside a respected, detail-driven builder delivering genuinely impressive projects.
