About the role
Project Manager – Civil Structures (Dams & Bridgeworks) Location: Brisbane, QLD (Northside)
Own the outcome.
A well-established Queensland civil contractor is looking for an experienced Project Manager to lead the delivery of structures-focused projects across dams, bridgeworks and major concrete works.
We’re a self-performing business. We build our own work with our own crews, so you’ll manage real delivery, real people and real results, with the autonomy to make decisions and the backing of a company that values hands-on leadership. If you want more ownership than a Tier 1 gives you, this is the role.
The work
Our projects are structures-focused: concreting, dams, bridgeworks and related civil structures. This is not a roadworks role.
