The Client

With decades of experience in development, head contracting, and property management, this construction company has consistently set the benchmark in the South Australian market for architecturally exciting projects.

These projects are high in quality and finish and exude a unique style that inspires and excites them.

Yet they remain affordable for first-time home buyers and investors, making them accessible to a broader audience.

The Project

This company is renowned for building communities, not projects, and its Mona Lisa of flagship communities is just getting started and needs an experienced Site Manager to run the show.

This 30-apartment 6-level project is worth around 30M dollars and has everything a modern inner-city community could want. Starting around November / December.

The Site Manager

You are an experienced Carpenter. Knowing the intricacies of carpentry as a base foundation is needed for this candidate to manage this flagship community. Sadly, the build's complexities won’t be met without it. Preferably, ten years plus an out-of-the-trade minimum would be ideal but not essential.

You are a specialist in mid-rise residential apartments. As most of this project is that type of build, you’d need to have previously managed two or three sites of that type to confidently and successfully run this project. Your completion from inception to handover is the most essential aspect.

You are a full-scope builder. For some of your management career, you’ve managed the structure, fit-out, and defects of mid-rise residential projects over $20M.

The Perks

You are on the best project of 2026 - No project I know of starting properly next year has had this level of planning, sophistication, backing, talent, and mastery applied to it. They will have the best of the best on it from day one, and if you're interested in the longevity of work, you'll be on two more of these projects for almost half a decade, so be ready for a stable, exciting, and worthwhile journey.

You will be paid what you are worth - Cliche sounding, I know, but to hire the best, you must compensate them. Especially since you will be on these projects for a long time, knowing when times get tough, the salary is sometimes what will keep you going, is a top priority. Yet, of course, it's on a case-by-case basis determined by many factors, which we'll discuss together.

You're in charge—building mid-rise apartments of the highest calibre. They need someone who loves quality, autonomy, and leading from the front. You will have an experienced team, but no one should know more than you at this level.

Hopefully, that has given you enough to consider the opportunity and moved the needle enough for you to consider that it may be worth chatting about over the coming weeks; if so, I'd love to talk to you about it.
