With a strong pipeline of camp / modular village installs, expansions and supporting infrastructure, we’re looking for an experienced Project Manager with Section 26 to take projects from early mobilisation through to execution on site.

This is a permanent opportunity with an immediate start available for the right person.

The Opportunity You’ll initially spend time based in Perth supporting pre-mobilisation and planning, then transition to site on a standard 2:1 roster to lead delivery.

  • Drive a strong safety culture(pre-starts, JHAs/SWMS, permits, incident follow-up)
  • Client and stakeholder engagement, reporting and progress updates
  • Manage resourcing, productivity and performance across multiple work fronts
What We’re Looking For
  • Proven Project Management experience delivering NPI / construction projects in remote environments
  • Section 26 (S26) Statutory Supervisor(preferred)
  • Strong preference for candidates with tier-one contractor-side delivery experience(camp/modular is highly regarded)
  • Ability to work Perth-based pre-mob, then commit to 2:1 site roster
  • Solid understanding of remote construction execution, subcontractor management and site systems
What’s On Offer
  • Permanent role with long-term project pipeline
  • 2:1 roster once mobilised
