Due to a steady pipeline of landmark projects, they are seeking a dedicated Project Manager to join their established Streetscape division on a permanent basis.

The Role

Operating within the specialist Streetscape business, the Project Manager will take full ownership of civil landscape projects from contract award through to final handover.

  • Procurement: Coordinate the supply and delivery of specialised streetscape materials, mature trees, and custom urban furniture elements.

What the Ideal Candidate Brings

  • Proven Streetscape Expertise: Strong, demonstrated experience managing streetscape or urban civil landscape projects (e.g., shopping strips, public plazas, urban paving, structural concrete elements).

  • Qualifications: A degree in Civil Engineering, Construction/Project Management, Landscape Architecture, or a relevant trade background with extensive management experience.

  • Financial & Commercial Acumen: Capability in managing project finances, tracking margins, and handling variations smoothly.

  • Communication: Exceptional communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to confidently navigate council specifications and client expectations.

  • Mobility: A valid Victorian Driver's License, as projects span across all quadrants of Melbourne.

What is on Offer

  • Competitive Salary Package: Generous base salary + super + fully maintained company vehicle.

  • Project Security: A secure, long-term project pipeline offering genuine job stability and room for professional growth.
