Job description

Not all building roles are the same.

Building display homes is a specialised discipline that goes well beyond delivering a standard residence. Every project represents our brand, our craftsmanship and the first impression we make on thousands of prospective customers.

We're looking for an experienced Construction Manager who understands what it takes to deliver display-quality homes and sales environments that showcase excellence from every angle.

Based across Sth East QLD, you'll oversee a portfolio of display home projects and lead their successful delivery from commencement through to grand opening.

Why this role?

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a purpose-built display program where quality, presentation and attention to detail genuinely matter.

You'll work on projects that are far more complex than a typical residential build, coordinating everything from premium home construction through to landscaping, pools, fencing, sales office fit-outs, signage, external works and the countless details that create an exceptional customer experience.

If you're already working in display homes, project homes or premium residential construction and thrive on delivering a polished final product, we'd like to hear from you.

What you’ll be doing

• Managing the end-to-end delivery of multiple display home projects
• Working closely with internal stakeholders across Sales, Marketing, Design, Development and Operations
• Coordinating trades, suppliers and external contractors
• Overseeing landscaping, pools, sales offices, signage and external presentation works
• Managing construction programmes, budgets and project milestones
• Identifying risks and solving problems before they impact project outcomes
• Ensuring every display is delivered to an exceptional standard and ready to open on time
• Driving safety, quality and compliance across all projects

What we’re looking for

This role requires someone who understands the unique challenges and expectations of display home delivery.

You'll likely bring:

• Proven experience delivering display homes or high-quality residential projects
• Leadership experience managing site-based construction teams
• Exceptional attention to detail and an eye for presentation
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
• The ability to adapt and respond in a fast-moving environment
• A collaborative approach and willingness to work across multiple departments
• Strong planning, organisation and problem-solving capability
• A track record of delivering quality outcomes within programme timeframes

Most importantly, you'll understand that a display home is much more than a house. It's a carefully orchestrated customer experience where every detail matters.

What you’ll get in return

• The opportunity to lead an important and highly visible construction programme
• Support from an experienced team of construction professionals
• Variety across multiple projects and communities
• A collaborative and professional culture
• The chance to influence quality outcomes and leave your mark on every project delivered
