AECOM's Program Management business is expanding! Our Darwin office is pipelining some major construction programs which will span across Northern Territory, opening some fantastic client-side project management opportunities. These opportunities will allow proven Project Managers to work with multiple stakeholders in a client-facing role and operating on behalf of the Northern Territory Government in developing new and improved facilities throughout NT.
As a Project Manager with a world leader in engineering and construction services, you will be exposed to a range of regional and remote project locations, enabling full concept-completion responsibility across some fantastic opportunities in major projects.
AECOM PgM Services aims to provide clients with full Construction and Project Management services from concept to completion and are currently looking for multiple Project Managers to work across the tender documentation to contractors, assessment of tender submission, and award of contracts.
Suitable Project Managers will then move into a construction role and actively undertake inspections, providing cost reports and construction reports while managing and maintaining stakeholder relationships with contractors, designers, and indigenous communities. As a Project Manager in AECOM, you will work across all phases in the construction lifecycle, from pre-contract to construction, delivery, and commissioning.
We are seeking candidates who are keen to grow their career in client-side project management and develop a better understanding of Australian Project Management frameworks.
Darwin provides an excellent opportunity for career growth; it is family-oriented and offers some of the best scenery in Australia for lovers of the outdoors.
