Ideally, you'll have previous experience working for a General Contractor within commercial construction.

You could currently be working as an:

Assistant Project Manager | Project Engineer | Project Coordinator

We're particularly interested in people who are:

• Organized and comfortable managing multiple priorities

• Comfortable reading construction drawings and specifications
• Interested in understanding the commercial side of project delivery
• Ambitious and looking to progress into a Project Manager position

Why consider this opportunity?

This is a genuine career opportunity rather than simply another APM position.

The company offers:

• Base salary up to approximately $85,000
