Project Manager-Client Side, Advisory, Strategy

Project Engineer, Project Manager required for Advisory Consultancy

Your new company
Completely unique!
One of my favourite clients due to the uniqueness of what they do. These guys are an extremely experienced and well-networked property development and strategic advisory firm. The Project Managers i have placed here absolutely love the difference in role, and the lifestyle change from working for a builder. Being a consultancy the working hours are far less.

This boutique firm of 7 are all ex Tier 1 or 2 builders and strive together to deliver a different service to their range of clients.

They offer a different service- a role that removes you from those onsite frustrations with the builder and gives you the exposure to clients from the outset of projects to change the way they are delivered. Providing a strategic service upfront which makes projects more cost-effective and better outcomes overall. Project Management is not their core business, rather their core business is front end development/project strategy and replanning and the PM function is an additional service they provide. Entirely different to those standard PM delivery firms/roles out there. Essentially, they provide full life cycle development services.

Your new role
Working closely with the client, your strong background with major Tier 1 or 2 builders you will provide advisory services across full project life cycles but most importantly upfront. With project experience across projects such as residential, commercial, health, industrial, education $50m+, you will work with clients from the outset, have an influence on how they are planned, set up and then delivered.
Managing consultants, stakeholders, close client interaction, you will no longer be involved in those onsite frustrations whilst working for a builder.
All the senior PM's i have placed here are ex Tier 1 builders.

What you'll need to succeed - as per the clients request - MUST HAVE

• A degree in a construction related field, engineering, QS, Construction Management
• 8 years+ working with Tier 1 or 2 builders here in Melbourne (not residential)
• Minimum of 4 years with one builder-longevity
• You must be CURRENTLY working directly at a Tier 1 or 2 builder
• Currently in a PE/Project Manager role with this builder
• Worked on similar type projects and values $30m+ (not medium residential)
• Excellent communication skills
• Eastern suburbs' office location-work from home 2 days
• Having had exposure to end client management

What you'll get in return is an opportunity to move into the best side of construction, the advisory, consulting space. Feedback from previous Tier 1 candidates placed is that role is genuinely completely different. They have loved using their construction experience to shape how projects are delivered rather than the day to delivery issues. Work-life balance is massive. No longer dealing with subbies, those early morning going to site, late night calls, all those delivery headaches. Your role is more structured and manageable therefore more enjoyable. Slightly intrigued, reach out on the below. Salary $160k- $200k+super
