Role: Project Manager – Power, Electrical & Construction Projects
Location: Perth, CBD
Salary: $154,000 – $164,000 + Superannuation + Extensive Benefits
Length: 12 Month Max-Term Contract, with likelihood of moving permanent
If you’re a Project Manager with construction experience under your belt, this one’s well worth a look. NES Fircroft is partnering with a major Western Australian organisation operating at the forefront of the power and renewables sector. They’re a big player in keeping WA energised and are heavily invested in the transition toward a cleaner, modernised network. They are now looking for a capable PM to help deliver some pretty significant distribution projects.
This role is all about taking full end‑to‑end ownership of high‑value works — making sure everything is running to scope, schedule, cost and quality standards, without ever compromising safety. You’ll be leading multidisciplinary teams, engaging with senior stakeholders, coordinating contractors, and keeping the programme moving even when complications come out of nowhere (as they do in construction). There’s a fair bit of schedule analysis involved, digging into delays, spotting root causes, and putting corrections in place before issues balloon.
Strong financial acumen will be key — managing both Capex and Opex, forecasting accurately, tracking performance and addressing variances early. You’ll also be preparing and presenting project status updates to leadership, so clear communication and a bit of presence will take you a long way.
Now, must‑haves:
