- Working too many hours at a Tier 1 or 2 builder?
- Better lifestyle than your builder, less hours and less stress
- Brilliant boutique culture- experienced group
Construction project manager required-Advisory, strategic, client side focused consultancy
Completely unique!
One of my favourite clients due to the uniqueness of the role. They provide construction professionals with something entirely different. These guys are an extremely experienced and well-networked property development and strategic advisory firm.
Everyone I have placed here love it. It's different, It's less stress, it's more enjoyable, yet the same exciting projects!
A team of 8 means you will have unique exposure to Directors and the opportunity to learn from the best.
An opportunity to be developed into a consultant PM, learn from some of the best.
They offer a different service- a role that removes you from those onsite frustrations with the builder and give you the exposure to clients from the outset of projects to change the way they are delivered. Providing a strategic service upfront which makes projects more cost-effective and better outcomes overall. PM is not their core business, rather their core business is front end development/project strategy and replanning and PM is an additional service they provide. Entirely different to those standard PM delivery firms/roles out there. Essentially they provide full life cycle development services. The nice side of construction.
Your new role
Working closely with the client, your strong background with major Tier 1 or 2 builders will provide construction advisory services across the full project life cycles, with a real focus on the front end. With project experience across projects such as residential towers, commercial towers, health, industrial, education. Not civils.
Projects $50m+, you will work with clients from the outset, have an influence on how projects are planned, designed and then delivered.
Managing consultants, stakeholders, close client interaction, you will no longer be involved in those onsite frustrations whilst working for a builder.
All the senior PM's I have placed here are ex Tier 1 builders, and all are still here and loving their new lifestyle and role.
What you'll need to succeed - as per the clients request - MUST HAVE
- A degree in a construction related field, engineering, QS, Construction Management
- 8 years+ working with Tier 1 or 2 builders here in Melbourne (not residential houses)
- Minimum of 4 years with one builder-longevity- no job hopping
- You must be working directly for a builder currently, not just previously.
- Held a PE/project management delivery type role within this builder
- Worked on similar type projects and values $30m+
- Excellent communication skills
- Eastern suburbs' office location-less hours
What you'll get in return is an opportunity to move into the best side of construction, the advisory space. Feedback from previous Tier 1 candidates placed is that the role is genuinely completely different. They have loved using their construction experience to shape how projects are delivered rather than the day-to-day delivery issues. The work-life balance is massive. No longer dealing with subbies, those early morning, late night calls, all those delivery headaches. Your role is more structured and manageable therefore more enjoyable.
