Job description

Pirotta Services Commercial | Full-Time | Site-based across Melbourne

What's In It For You

You won't just deliver projects, you'll be the reason clients come back. At PSC, the Site Manager is the face of the company on every job. When you build trust with a client, that relationship turns into the next project. Your reputation becomes our reputation.

• Autonomy to run your sites your way. Within quality standards, you call the shots on how work gets done
• Direct impact on company growth: great client relationships you build lead to repeat work and larger projects
• Competitive salary plus vehicle allowance
• Work with a company investing in growth. More projects, better projects, and you'll be part of making that happen
• Leadership that backs you up and develops you, not micromanagement

What This Role Actually Is

This is the role for a carpenter who's ready to lead. You'll run commercial fitout and construction projects under $5M, coordinating trades, managing quality, and being the person the client trusts to get things done right. A great Site Manager at PSC doesn't just hit deadlines, they make clients feel like they're in safe hands.

What You'll Own

• Project delivery: on time, on cost, on quality. That's the job.
• Site operations: daily coordination, trade sequencing, material management, quality checks
• Client relationships: professional communication, problem-solving, making clients feel confident in PSC
• Trade supervision: subcontractor quality, program adherence, defect prevention before handover

How You'll Know You're Winning

• Program milestones met or exceeded
• Projects delivered within budget
• Minimal defects at practical completion. Your quality standards prevent rework
• Clients who ask for you on their next project
• Zero serious safety incidents

What You Bring

• Carpentry background. Trade-qualified preferred, you've done the work yourself
• Plan reading and material takeoffs (carpentry, plastering, doors/hardware)
• Procore experience (or similar PM software)
• Track record of delivering projects on time and budget
• White Card and current driver's license

This Role Probably Isn't For You If...

• You see site management as 'just supervision' rather than client relationship building
• You're not comfortable with some Saturday work when project timelines require it
• You prefer a fixed office location rather than being out on sites across Melbourne
• You wait for problems to be reported rather than spotting them yourself

Note: This role requires flexibility including some Saturday work when project timelines require it.
