CPP is continuing to grow across Queensland, and we’re looking for a capable Project Manager to join our Brisbane team and play a key role in delivering complex energy infrastructure projects.
This is well suited to a true project manager—someone who understands end-to-end project delivery and can take ownership rather than relying heavily on support functions. You’ll be working across a portfolio of medium to large-scale projects, with the opportunity to partner with senior leaders on high-value, technically complex work, while progressively taking ownership of your own projects.
The role offers strong exposure across the full project lifecycle—from early-stage planning and bid support through to delivery—working closely with construction, engineering, and commercial teams. CPP operates with lean, capable teams, so you’ll be trusted to step into the detail where needed, particularly across programming, forecasting, reporting, and stakeholder management.
This is a great opportunity for a project manager or experienced project engineer stepping up, looking to work on nationally significant energy projects with a business that combines strong financial backing (Quanta Services) with a genuine team-first culture.
