About CPM
We are CPM Advisory and Project Management, and we work with government clients to deliver infrastructure that matters to communities. As a client-side consultancy, we're involved in projects from the early planning stages right through to delivery and handover.

Our team comes from all sorts of backgrounds: civil, mechanical, electrical and building construction professionals. We work across five main areas: Civil (Roads & Transport), Energy, Ports & Maritime, Water and Built Environment.

The projects we work on are the kinds of things you drive past or use every day: roads, rail lines, utilities, dams, marine infrastructure, civic buildings. We're there working alongside our clients to make sure these projects are built right, on time and deliver real value to our clients and the community.

Our values aren't just words on a wall. They genuinely guide how we work: People First, Adaptability & Technical Excellence, Collaboration and Positive Legacy.

About the Role
As a Project Manager, you'll be leading infrastructure projects for government clients. Day-to-day, that means working with government stakeholders, consultants and delivery partners to keep projects on track, on budget and up to standard.

You'll lead project teams, manage scope and risk and provide advice that helps clients achieve what they're trying to do for their communities.

We work with councils and government organisations at all levels. Most of our engagements involve being seconded to a client organisation where you'll work as an embedded resource. Usually, you'll split your time between the client's office and ours.

You'll be part of a team that values technical know-how, flexibility and getting stuck in when problems arise. Success in this role comes down to building trusted relationships, navigating stakeholder complexities and getting projects delivered.

Skills | Experience | Qualifications
We're after a Project Manager who's technically capable, collaborative and proactive. You'll have experience working on projects in areas like:

• Transport & Civil Infrastructure
• Built Environment (Health & Education)
• Utilities & Energy
• Renewables & Sustainability
• Water Infrastructure
• Urban Development

Most of our team have tertiary qualifications across various disciplines. Ideally, you'll have:

• A degree: Civil, Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, Architecture or similar
• If you're an Engineer - RPEQ or CPEng accreditation would be great (if not, CPM will support this accreditation)
• Strong communication skills - both written and verbal, and the ability to build genuine relationships with stakeholders
• Excellent time management and a roll-up-your-sleeves attitude

Your background might be with government organisations, councils, contractors or consultancies.
