Senior Project Manager

About the Role
As a Senior Project Manager at Cachet Group, you’ll lead the end-to-end delivery of commercial fit-out and design projects across Sydney — balancing design understanding, project leadership, construction delivery, and client management. This role is designed for someone ready to step into broader organisational leadership over time, with exposure across design, delivery, commercial, and general management functions.

You’ll guide projects from pitch through to handover, ensuring they are delivered on time, on budget, and to Cachet’s high standards. You’ll collaborate daily with designers, site teams, consultants, subcontractors, and clients, while creating an exceptional project experience for stakeholders. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, leads with confidence, and is ready to grow into future senior leadership.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead projects from pitch to handover, including programs, budgets, value-engineering, and client presentations.
• Manage contract documentation, design coordination, approvals, procurement, and subcontractor appointments.
• Oversee site delivery through regular meetings, tracking progress, quality, safety, and cost performance.
• Issue variations, progress claims, completion documentation, and final invoicing.
• Ensure a smooth client handover and manage defects through to final sign-off.
• Build strong relationships with clients, landlords, and consultants.
• Lead progress meetings, manage expectations, and maintain communication throughout the project lifecycle.
• Coordinate closely with design, procurement, finance, and project teams for seamless project execution.
• Manage weekly resourcing and provide timely updates to internal stakeholders.
• Mentor junior project managers and support their development.
• Lead by example with calm guidance, collaboration, and proactive problem solving.
