  • Preparing monthly final forecast cost estimates for allocated trade packages.
  • Managing RFIs and commercial correspondence.
  • Monitoring the procurement program and off-site activity schedule.
  • Liaising with consultants, subcontractors, suppliers and other key stakeholders.
  • Working with the Project Manager to coordinate design documentation, project planning and programming.

  • Sound construction knowledge and an understanding of relevant regulations, codes and safety requirements.
  • Well-developed communication, negotiation and stakeholder-management skills.
  • The ability to work autonomously and manage competing priorities within a demanding project environment.
  • Proficiency in construction management software and Microsoft Office.

This is a permanent, full-time position based between the company’s Palm Beach office and the project site. It offers the opportunity to contribute to a significant Gold Coast development while joining a business with an expanding project pipeline.
