Job description

Know how to run a site? We want to talk.

Some people manage construction sites. Others own the outcome.

We're looking for an experienced Site Manager who knows how to get the best out of people, keep projects moving and take pride in delivering a quality job.

At ICG Construction, we build more than buildings. We build strong teams, lasting relationships and projects that make a difference across regional NSW.

We're a locally established construction group with big ambitions, a solid pipeline of work and a reputation built on getting the job done to a high standard.

The gig

You'll be the person making things happen on site. From coordinating trades and keeping the program on track to solving problems before they become headaches, you'll be leading from the front.

You'll be responsible for:

• Running day-to-day site operations across commercial and industrial construction projects.

• Leading subcontractors and trades to deliver safe, productive and high-quality work.

• Keeping a firm grip on programs, resources, quality and site coordination.

• Working closely with Project Managers, contract administrators, consultants and clients to keep everyone on the same page.

• Maintaining high standards of safety, workmanship and site presentation.

• Tackling challenges head-on and finding better ways to get things done.

What makes you our kind of Site Manager?

We're not looking for someone who just ticks boxes. We want someone who knows their stuff, backs their team and takes ownership.

Ideally, you'll bring:

• At least 3 years' experience managing commercial or industrial construction sites.

• Strong construction knowledge and the ability to read plans and stay ahead of the program.

• A practical, solutions-focused approach and the confidence to make decisions.

• The ability to lead people, manage subcontractors and earn respect on site.

• A genuine commitment to safety, quality and getting the details right.

• Clear communication skills and a willingness to roll up your sleeves when needed.

Defence construction experience would be a bonus, but it's not a dealbreaker. A Certificate IV in Building and Construction (or higher) is also highly regarded.
