Project Manager
Working at Transurban is different; it’s a place where you can see the benefits of your work play out in real life, every day. We create city-sized solutions—building and operating safer, smarter, and more sustainable roads—to solve pressing transport challenges that are slowing cities down.
About the role
We’re seeking a Project Manager you will work closely with a range of internal and external stakeholders, including Senior Project Managers, Project Engineers, external Consultants and Contractors, Government stakeholders and Asset Owners.
Functioning within a matrix structure, the Project Manager will be required to influence outside of their immediate reporting line to ensure successful project delivery and as such internal stakeholder management will be a key aspect of the role.
As our Project Manager, you’ll contribute to lasting and positive changes that shape the future of our cities and communities. It’s meaningful, challenging and exciting work.
Day-to-day, you will:
- Contribute to the success of Transurban through the effective management and delivery of projects
- Negotiate and manage external contractors, stakeholders and consultants, ensuring they comply with contractual obligations including WHS and environmental requirements
- Present ongoing updates on performance, progress, risks, barriers, budget and forecasts
- Ensure project risks are identified and mitigation measures are put in place
This role will suit someone with a curious mind and transferrable skills and experiences, including:
- 5+ years’ experience as a proven Project Manager, from pre-construction through delivery to handover
- The ability to flex between projects and processes
- A tertiary qualification in engineering from a recognised institution
- Significant experience as a high performing Project Manager on civil projects; tunnels, roads, structural etc.
- An understanding of quality and asset management
- Strong communication skills (written/verbal)
- Experience of traffic management practices
- The ability to lead and build positive relationships
If you meet some of these requirements, but not all, we encourage you to submit your application.
With a career at Transurban, you’ll enjoy a range of benefits, including:
- A range of flexible working and leave options, including the option to purchase an additional six weeks of leave each year
- 16 weeks paid parental leave (regardless of gender or carer status), with no waiting period, with Superannuation paid during unpaid leave as well
- Learning and development opportunities to support your career interests
- Health and wellbeing support—access to Headspace and our EAP program, wellness facilities, and more
- Share offers and insurance benefits
- Social activities, community give-back programs and paid volunteer days
We offer a range of flexible working and leave options, so you can balance your work and life commitments and interests. Have a conversation with us about how this could work for you.
We embrace diversity with a foundation of safety, wellbeing and inclusion; where everyone belongs. We treat everyone with fairness, consideration and respect, regardless of gender, gender identity, marital or family status, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, religious beliefs, cultural or socio-economic background, perspective, and experience – whether they work for us or not. We want to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to express ideas, questions and concerns.
We strongly encourage applications from candidates of diverse backgrounds and lived experiences, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and people living with disability.
