Project Manager | Commercial Fire

$150K + Super + Company Vehicle

Sydney

If you're an experienced Project Manager looking to step into larger, more technically challenging projects without losing the support of a strong team around you, this is an opportunity worth exploring.

We're partnering with one of Sydney's largest and most respected fire protection contractors. With decades of success and a reputation for delivering major commercial projects across design, installation and maintenance, the business continues to secure some of the city's most recognisable developments.

Due to continued growth, they are looking for a Project Manager to join their Commercial Projects team.

The Opportunity

You'll join a well structured delivery team consisting of Senior Project Managers, Project Managers and dedicated engineering support, giving you the backing needed to deliver projects successfully while continuing to develop your own career.

You'll typically manage two or three projects at any one time, with individual project values ranging from $3M to $4M. Current projects include major commercial developments and large scale data centres, with an exceptionally strong pipeline of work secured across Sydney.

What You'll Be Doing

• Deliver commercial fire protection projects from award through to completion
• Manage project programmes, budgets and commercial outcomes
• Coordinate subcontractors, suppliers and site teams
• Build strong relationships with builders, consultants and clients
• Ensure projects are delivered safely, on time and to the highest quality standards
• Monitor financial performance, forecasts and project reporting
• Drive successful project outcomes while maintaining excellent client relationships

What We're Looking For

• Experience managing commercial fire protection projects
• Proven delivery of projects valued around $3M to $4M
• Strong client and stakeholder management skills
• Commercial awareness and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
• A collaborative leadership style and excellent communication skills
• Experience working with wet fire systems is highly regarded

Why You'll Want This Role

This isn't a business where you'll be left to figure things out alone.

You'll work alongside experienced Senior Project Managers who genuinely support their team, giving you exposure to larger projects and a clear pathway to continue progressing your career.

With significant repeat business, major commercial clients and one of the strongest pipelines in the Sydney market, you'll be joining a company that's built for long term success rather than chasing the next project.

If you're looking for a role where you can deliver landmark projects while building your career with an industry leader, we'd love to have a confidential conversation.
