Job Description

Up to $300K + Super + Bonus | Brisbane Based | Fast-Growth Infrastructure Owner

 

Big growth. Big impact. This is your chance to lead construction delivery across a rapidly expanding national depot infrastructure network - where real decisions and real projects sit in your hands.

 

You’ll oversee the rollout of new and upgraded facilities nationwide - managing a busy pipeline of up to 20 projects a year and an annual program worth around $30M.

 

From site acquisition through to commissioning, you’ll be the one driving outcomes, maintaining accountability, and keeping momentum high.

 

What you’ll get to do

  • Lead end-to-end delivery for projects - from planning and approvals through to handover.
  • Oversee a diverse project portfolio involving civil, structural, mechanical and electrical components:
    • Excavations, footings, and underground services
    • Fuel systems, pumps, and tank installations
    • Modular and large shelter structures
    • Technology systems – CCTV, etc
  • Manage budget, schedule, safety, and compliance across multiple live projects.
  • Collaborate closely with infrastructure, property, and executive teams to keep things moving.
  • Some travel required (approx. 25%) - visiting sites and making sure projects are delivered to plan.

 

About you

You’re a hands on construction leader who thrives in a fast-paced, delivery-driven environment. You know how to juggle competing priorities, make smart calls, and inspire teams to get sh*t done - safely and commercially.

  • Background in civil, building, or services projects
  • Experience managing multiple concurrent builds or upgrade programs
  • Strong technical and commercial acumen
  • Able to manage budgets, contractors, and stakeholder relationships with confidence
  • Strategic thinker who’s not afraid to roll up their sleeves

 

Why this role stands out

  • High impact leadership role – own delivery across a national infrastructure portfolio
  • Attractive package – up to $300K + Super + Bonus
  • Fast growing business with major investment backing and ambitious expansion plans
  • Autonomy, trust, and variety – no red tape, just results
  • Work with a team that values drive, accountability, and straight talk

 

If you’re ready to lead from the front and take on a role where your decisions shape real outcomes, we’d love to hear from you.
