Project Leader or Senior Project Leader | Global Practice | Sydney

Mega Recruitment is partnering with a highly regarded international architecture and design practice to appoint an experienced Project Leader or Senior Project Leader to its Sydney studio.

This is a key permanent appointment for a senior architectural professional with proven experience leading complex projects, managing multidisciplinary teams and driving delivery across all stages of a project.

The practice is an established global brand with a strong reputation for innovation, design excellence and the use of advanced technology across its projects and studios. With a growing pipeline of significant work, the business is seeking an accomplished leader who can take ownership of major projects and provide direction to both internal teams and external stakeholders.

As Project Leader or Senior Project Leader, you will be responsible for the successful leadership and delivery of complex architectural projects from early design through to documentation and construction.

You will work closely with clients, consultants, contractors and senior studio leaders while managing internal project teams, programme requirements, commercial outcomes and design quality.

This role requires someone who is currently leading projects and can demonstrate genuine responsibility for project performance, team management and client relationships.

The position is offered on a full-time permanent basis and includes:

• Two days working from home
• Performance-based bonus structures
• A strong and clearly defined career pathway
• Exposure to major local and international projects
• Access to leading technology, systems and design tools

You will be an experienced architectural professional with approximately 10–15+ years of industry experience and a strong track record leading complex projects within Australia.

You must have:

• Recent experience leading major architectural projects
• A minimum of approximately 10–15+ years of professional experience
• Current Sydney or Australian architectural practice experience
• Strong client-management and stakeholder-engagement capability

Applicants must have experience leading complex, large-scale projects in one or more of the following sectors:

• Rail
• Transport
• Infrastructure
• Health
• Education
• Civic and cultural
• Government
• Technology and innovation

The successful candidate will have more than project coordination experience. You must be able to demonstrate current responsibility for leading teams, managing clients and driving projects through key design and delivery milestones.

This is a rare opportunity to join a leading international design business that combines global resources with a strong local studio culture.

The practice is recognised for embracing innovation and remaining at the forefront of design technology, digital delivery and emerging project methodologies.

You will benefit from:

• Two days working from home
• Flexible start and finish times
• Performance and bonus structures
• A clear pathway toward more senior leadership opportunities
• Exposure to major and technically complex projects
• Access to global knowledge, systems and specialist expertise
• A collaborative and highly capable leadership team
