Strong commercial, contract administration and project management experience.
Experience managing procurement, subcontractors and project planning.
Sound understanding of project budgets, forecasting and reporting.
Experience using project management platforms such as InEight, Aconex or Procore.
Excellent communication, problem-solving and stakeholder management skills.
Demonstrated leadership experience working with project teams.

Previous Defence project experience.
Strong mentoring and leadership capability.
A proactive, solutions-focused approach.
Commitment to delivering safe, high-quality project outcomes.
The ability to build trusted relationships across project teams and clients.

Why Join McMahon Services?

DIDO roster with accommodation and applicable work-away allowances provided.
Deliver meaningful civil infrastructure projects supporting Australia's Defence capability.
Join an experienced and collaborative Civil & Infrastructure team.
Genuine long-term career opportunities within one of Australia's leading privately owned construction companies.
Access ongoing development through the MAC Learning Academy, employee benefits and wellbeing initiatives.
