Construction Manager - Civil

I’m currently working with a highly regarded, family-owned national civil contractor looking to appoint a Construction Manager to join their Adelaide team.

This is a brilliant opportunity to join a well-established, family-owned business with a strong reputation, an impressive pipeline of secured work and a genuinely people-first culture.
With a major focus on residential subdivisions and land development, the business is continuing to grow and is looking for a strong construction leader to help drive project delivery across South Australia.

The Opportunity

• Lead the delivery of major civil construction projects, primarily residential subdivisions and land development.
• Oversee site operations, project teams, subcontractors, programmes, budgets and overall project performance.
• Drive safety, quality, productivity and commercial outcomes across projects.
• Work closely with Project Managers, engineers, clients and senior leadership to ensure successful project delivery.
• Develop and mentor teams, build strong relationships and promote a positive site culture.
• Play a key role in delivering a substantial pipeline of work, with the opportunity to influence project outcomes and contribute to the business's continued growth.

About You:

• You'll ideally come from a Civil Engineering background, with experience delivering civil infrastructure projects, particularly subdivisions, land development or bulk earthworks.
• Previous Construction Manager experience is advantageous but not essential. Keen to speak with Senior Project Managers and ambitious Project Managers ready to step up into a broader leadership position.
• You'll bring strong technical and commercial capability, proven leadership skills and the ability to get the best out of site teams. Just as importantly, you'll be someone who values relationships, takes pride in their work and wants to be part of a business where people genuinely matter.

What's in It for You?:

• $210,000–$235,000+ package, depending on experience.
• Additional benefits and incentives.
• A strong pipeline of secured civil construction projects across Adelaide and South Australia.
• Join a leading national contractor with the culture and values of a family-owned business.
• Work with a down-to-earth leadership team and a genuinely supportive group of people.
• Excellent career progression opportunities as the business continues to grow.
