About the role

Project Manager (Specialist Projects)
Kurri Kurri, NSW
Attractive Salary Package

Our client is seeking an experienced and results-driven Project Manager to join their Project Delivery team based in Kurri Kurri, NSW.

This is an exciting opportunity to lead a diverse portfolio of sustaining and capital projects across mobile delivery systems, infrastructure upgrades, commissioning activities, asset mobilisation, and operational improvement initiatives.

About the Role Reporting to the Lead Projects, you will be responsible for the end-to-end delivery of multiple projects, ensuring outcomes are achieved safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest standards.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Managing multiple sustaining and capital projects simultaneously.
  • Developing project scopes, schedules, budgets, and risk management plans.
  • Coordinating contractors, suppliers, procurement activities, and project resources.
  • Managing project governance, reporting, forecasting, and project controls.
  • Leading mobilisation, construction, commissioning, and handover activities.
  • Building strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Ensuring compliance with safety, environmental, and regulatory requirements.
  • Driving projects through to successful completion while balancing competing priorities.
About You
We are looking for a practical project professional with a strong delivery focus and the ability to navigate complexity.

You may come from a background in:
  • Project Delivery
  • Mining
  • Fixed Plant or Mobile Equipment
  • Civil Construction
  • Heavy Manufacturing
  • Maintenance and Shutdowns
  • Operations or Logistics
  • Trades or Construction Supervision
While engineering qualifications may be beneficial, this is not a design engineering role. We are particularly interested in candidates who have successfully coordinated and delivered projects within operational, maintenance, construction, or manufacturing environments. Formal project management qualifications will be highly regarded.

What Will Make You Successful

The ideal candidate will:
  • Make sound decisions with incomplete information.
  • Thrive in ambiguous and changing environments.
  • Balance competing stakeholder expectations.
  • Drive outcomes despite uncertainty.
  • Maintain strong ownership and accountability.
  • Be highly organised and capable of managing multiple projects concurrently.
  • Hold stakeholders accountable and follow through on commitments.
  • Focus on delivering practical outcomes rather than pursuing technical perfection.
In short, we're looking for someone who can bring structure to complexity, coordinate multiple stakeholders, and consistently deliver successful project outcomes.

Key Requirements
  • 5+ years' experience managing capital and/or sustaining projects.
  • Qualifications in Project Management, Engineering, Construction, or equivalent industry experience.
  • Strong contractor management and stakeholder engagement skills.
  • Demonstrated experience managing project budgets, schedules, and risk.
  • Excellent communication, planning, and organisational skills.
  • Experience working within industrial, manufacturing, mining, maintenance, or construction environments.
What's on Offer
  • Attractive salary package.
  • Opportunity to manage a diverse portfolio of projects with significant business impact.
  • Supportive and collaborative project delivery environment.
  • Minimal travel requirements (less than 10%).
  • Based in Kurri Kurri, NSW.
If you're a proactive Project Manager who enjoys creating order from complexity, influencing stakeholders, and delivering outcomes, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today for a confidential discussion.

At Chandler Macleod, we are committed to fostering a diverse workforce where everyone is welcome. We encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, women, neurodiverse, people living with a disability and the LGBTIQA+ community.
