Job description

Are you an experienced Project Manager or Senior Civil Engineer within the land development or infrastructure space?

Looking for a role where you're still close to the engineering, but you're also trusted to make decisions, influence outcomes and build strong relationships with clients?

Maybe you're ready for a little more ownership.

A little more commercial exposure.

And a role where your experience actually gets to influence how projects are delivered.

J. Wyndham Prince has spent more than 40 years delivering land development and major infrastructure projects across Greater Sydney.

They're an established multidisciplinary consultancy, working across civil engineering, project management, planning, stormwater and strategic engineering to deliver practical outcomes for both private and government clients.

And now they're looking for an experienced Project Manager to join their Delivery Services team.

Based in their Penrith CBD office, you'll have modern facilities, plenty of parking, public transport, cafés and shopping all within walking distance.

Oh... and there's still the 3pm finish every Friday.

This isn't just about keeping a project on track.

You'll have genuine ownership across the full project lifecycle from planning and resourcing through to delivery, client management and completion.

You'll be responsible for directing and guiding project resources, managing project plans and schedules, keeping a close eye on budgets and forecasts, and making the decisions needed to deliver projects successfully.

You'll work closely with clients, consultants and internal teams, making sure projects are technically sound, commercially viable, constructible and delivered within scope, time and cost.

And because you're joining the Delivery Services team, there's a broader element to the role too.

You'll have the opportunity to contribute to proposals, tenders and new opportunities.

Build and strengthen client relationships.

Identify opportunities in the market.

Contribute to scopes, methodologies and pricing.

And help build a strong pipeline of work.

It's project management with a little more influence.

You've been around civil engineering and project delivery for a while.

You understand what makes a project work. Technically, commercially and from a client's perspective.

You might currently be a Project Manager.

You might be a Senior Civil Engineer who has naturally moved into project ownership and client management.

Either way, you're ready for a role where you're trusted to take the lead.

You're comfortable sitting in front of a client and talking through a project.

You're confident managing consultants, resources, budgets and competing priorities.

You can look at a project and understand not just what needs to be delivered, but what could go wrong, where the opportunities are and what needs to happen next.

And you're commercially minded.

You understand that successful project delivery isn't just about hitting a deadline. It's about delivering something technically sound, profitable, practical and valuable to the client.

J. Wyndham Prince has built a strong reputation across Greater Sydney for delivering high-quality civil engineering and project management solutions across land development and infrastructure.

They're an established team of experienced engineers, designers and project professionals who work collaboratively to deliver practical outcomes for their clients.

You'll be surrounded by people who know their stuff.

People who are approachable.

People who are willing to share their experience.

And people who genuinely want to see the business and the people within it continue to grow.

This is an opportunity to step into a role where your technical experience, project management capability and commercial thinking can all come together.

Not just managing projects.

Helping shape how they're delivered.
