Job description

Our client is a growing residential development and construction business building a vertically integrated platform across regional NSW. With an active pipeline of land and housing projects across Bathurst, Orange, and surrounding areas, they are transitioning from early-stage delivery into a structured, scalable operation – combining land development, housing delivery, and in-house manufacturing capability. This is a business on the move, and this role is central to that journey.

About the Client

Our client is a growing residential development and construction business building a vertically integrated platform across regional NSW. With an active pipeline of land and housing projects across Bathurst, Orange, and surrounding areas, they are transitioning from early-stage delivery into a structured, scalable operation – combining land development, housing delivery, and in-house manufacturing capability. This is a business on the move, and this role is central to that journey.

The Opportunity

This is not a standard site management role.

We are looking for a experienced operator who can take ownership of multiple residential projects while helping to build the systems, trade networks, and delivery model needed to scale the business. You will manage multiple turnkey residential builds from day one, while playing an active role in shaping how the business operates – from construction programming and buildability refinement through to trade network development and QA processes.

Over time, this role is expected to evolve into a Regional Construction Manager position, leading a team of Site Managers as the business grows. If you're looking for a role where you can genuinely leave your mark, this is it.

Key Responsibilities

• End-to-end delivery of multiple residential projects from site establishment through to handover.

• Build and coordinate a reliable, high-performing subcontractor network across regional NSW.

• Manage construction programmes, sequencing, and site logistics across multiple live sites.

• Identify and resolve buildability challenges, particularly on new designs and first-time builds.

• Collaborate closely with development, design, and estimating teams to improve delivery outcomes.

• Contribute to the establishment of site systems, QA processes, and operational standards.

• Maintain strong control over safety, quality, cost, and programme performance.

• Provide on-site leadership, setting clear expectations with trades and suppliers.

A self-starter mentality; comfortable operating with autonomy in a growing business.

What's on Offer

• A long-term role within a growing development and construction platform.

• A clear pathway to Regional Construction Manager as the business scales.

• Real opportunity to help shape how the business operates – your input will matter.

• Strong pipeline of work across Bathurst, Orange, and the Central West region.

• Competitive salary aligned with your experience and capability.
