Job description

An established client-side Project Management and Development Advisory consultancy is seeking an experienced Project Manager to join its close-knit Sydney team.

With nearly 20 years in the market and a diverse portfolio of private-sector projects, this role offers the chance to work across major developments in education, health, heritage, resources, residential, and entertainment.

You will enjoy the opportunity to take genuine responsibility, work alongside experienced property professionals and deliver meaningful projects — all within a business that values its people and offers a more personal, collaborative alternative to a large corporate environment.

The Opportunity

You will work across a diverse portfolio of complex projects, managing client relationships and coordinating consultants, contractors and stakeholders to drive successful outcomes.

The current portfolio includes:

• Major education developments: Supporting significant masterplanning and multi-site projects, alongside a range of individual capital works.
• Large-scale regional projects: Contributing to the planning and delivery of major developments outside metropolitan Sydney.
• Heritage and adaptive reuse: Working on the transformation of existing buildings, from early design and consultant engagement through planning approvals and delivery.

You will have the opportunity to contribute across the project lifecycle, from planning, design and approvals through procurement, construction and completion.

About You

We are looking for a capable, commercially minded Project Manager with a minimum of 4 years' post-qualification experience and a proven track record in project delivery.

You will ideally bring:

• Demonstrated Project Management experience, either from the client-side or contractor-side.
• A strong understanding of construction, project delivery, programme, cost and risk management.
• The ability to take ownership and hit the ground running.
• Confident in managing clients, consultants and contractors.
• Strong communication, organisational and problem-solving skills.
• A genuine willingness to learn, develop and contribute to a high-performing team.

You will be someone who takes pride in your work, has a strong work ethic and can clearly articulate your experience, responsibilities and project achievements.

Just as importantly, you will be personable, collaborative and keen to build long-term relationships within a business that values commitment, accountability and growth.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to join an established consultancy where you can work on substantial projects without the layers of bureaucracy and internal politics often found in larger organisations.

You'll enjoy:

• Quality projects: Exposure to major, complex developments across diverse sectors.
• Real responsibility: Take ownership and make a meaningful contribution.
• Experienced leadership: Learn directly from senior professionals who are invested in your development.
• A supportive culture: Work within a close-knit, diverse team that values collaboration and enjoys spending time together.
• Long-term career growth: Develop your skills, build your reputation and be recognised for your contribution.

With regular team events, social activities and community initiatives, this business combines a strong work ethic with a genuinely personal approach.

Take the Next Step

If you are an experienced Project Manager looking for challenging projects, greater responsibility and the opportunity to grow within a business that values its people, we'd love to hear from you.
