Additional Information

The environment you are joining

This is a high-pressure, project-driven environment with long working hours and clear delivery expectations.

The organization is still building structure, so you will need to be comfortable operating with a degree of ambiguity while maintaining discipline and control.

In return, you will have real ownership, visibility, and the opportunity to influence how project controls are embedded as the business grows.

What’s In It For You

This role offers the chance to play a key role in delivering a flagship luxury residential project, with strong backing from an experienced developer and a growing project pipeline.

You will have senior-level responsibility at project level, close interaction with leadership, and the opportunity to help shape how project control is done in a fast-growing contracting organization.

If you are motivated by challenge, ownership, and the opportunity to be part of a long-term success story, we would like to hear from you.
