Project Manager - Residential
A well-established landscaping, design and construction business in Melbourne's north-west is seeking an experienced project manager to take ownership of its residential portfolio and lead a team of 15.
This is an award-winning business with a reputation built on high-quality residential builds and outdoor construction, a strong design capability in-house, and strong staff retention. The work is visible, the standard is high quality and the projects are genuine wow factors.
About the Role
As the Project Manager you will own the residential portfolio end to end from planning and programming through to completion and handover. You will carry approximately 10-15 projects with annual projects roughly $10 million with the projection to increase this year on year and all whilst leading a solid team of 15 with team leaders reporting directly to you.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage the full project lifecycle across residential landscaping, design, build and construction
- Run up to 15 concurrent projects without losing detail on any of them
- Develop and maintain project programs, Gantt charts, budgets and procurement schedules
- Lead a team of 15 including direct reports, and hold the team accountable to standard
- Coordinate site teams, Team Leaders, trades, subcontractors and suppliers
- Plan resourcing, project stages and site requirements, and identify delays before they hit the program
- Identify variations early and escape properly so the right commercial call is made
- Liaise directly with clients throughout, protecting both quality and the relationship
- Oversee quality, safety and compliance on site
- Monitor labour, costs, margin and project performance, and report to senior management
01st September, 2026
About You
- 5+ years in project management within residential construction, landscaping or high-end outdoor build
- Proven experience leading and managing teams, including direct reports
- Exceptional people skills, with the ability to keep a large team in line without losing them
- Highly proficient in creating and driving Gantt charts and project programs
- Strong understanding of scheduling, dependencies and resource planning
- Creative and solutions-focused, particularly when something changes on site
- Commercially aware, with the judgement to elevate a variation rather than solve it alone
- Confident holding a hard conversation and keeping the room onside
- Thick-skinned, empathetic, straight talking
- Current driver's licence and the right to work in Australia
- Must be able to undergo a medical clearance
What's on Offer
- Join an award-winning business with a genuine reputation in the market
- Full ownership of a substantial residential portfolio, not a slice of someone else's
- Real structure and support are behind you, so you are not holding the role together alone
- A director who actively mentors his team and invests in the people around him
- Genuine career progression as the business grows and the role grows with it
- A strong, established team with exceptional retention
- Flexibility and trust in how you manage your role
- Company vehicle, fuel card, laptop and phone
