Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the successful delivery of multiple projects from concept through to commissioning and close-out.
  • Develop and execute project strategies that align with business and operational objectives.
  • Manage project scope, budgets, schedules, resources, and project risks.
  • Lead multidisciplinary teams including engineering, maintenance, operations, contractors, and external stakeholders.
  • Drive project governance, reporting, and performance measurement.
  • Ensure compliance with safety, quality, regulatory, and contractual requirements.
  • Manage client and stakeholder relationships throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Identify opportunities for operational improvement, efficiency gains, and long-term value creation.
  • Mentor and support junior project managers and project teams where required.
  • Deliver projects safely, on time, within budget, and to agreed quality standards.

Minimum Requirements

  • Bachelor's Degree in Engineering, Project Management, Construction Management, or a related technical discipline.
  • Minimum 8 years' experience leading and delivering projects within a manufacturing, mineral processing, mining, or industrial environment.
  • Proven experience managing complex multidisciplinary projects with significant capital value.
  • Strong understanding of project management methodologies, project controls, and risk management principles.
  • Demonstrated experience managing budgets, contractors, and stakeholder engagement.

What We're Looking For

We're not looking for someone who simply manages schedules.

We're looking for a leader who understands the operational realities behind every project. Someone who can balance technical requirements, commercial objectives, stakeholder expectations, and project execution without losing sight of the bigger picture.

You are comfortable making difficult decisions. You remain calm when challenges arise. You know how to motivate teams, influence stakeholders, and maintain momentum when others lose focus.

Most importantly, you take ownership of outcomes and are driven by the satisfaction of seeing complex projects successfully delivered.

Why Apply?

This is an opportunity to work on challenging projects that directly support industrial growth, operational performance, and long-term business success. You'll join an environment where expertise, initiative, and leadership are recognised and where your contribution can make a lasting impact.

If you're ready to lead projects that shape the future of industry and leave a legacy of delivery excellence, we'd like to hear from you.

Apply directly by sending your CV to: [email protected]
