Project Manager

Are you a delivery-focused Project Manager who wants your work to mean something? Join us to deliver the social and affordable homes communities across NSW urgently need.

About us

SVdPSHA is a Tier 1 Community Housing Provider delivering social and affordable housing outcomes across Australia. We’re growing our development pipeline through strong partnerships, government funding programs and financially sustainable projects — and we’re looking for an experienced Project Manager to help bring these homes to life.

About the role

Reporting to the Chief Development Officer, you’ll take end-to-end ownership of our housing development projects — from feasibility and design through planning, procurement, construction and handover.

This is a genuinely hands-on delivery role. You’ll be on site inspecting progress, chairing Project Control Group (PCG) meetings, working alongside builders and supervisors, and making sure every project lands on time, on budget and to the quality our tenants deserve.

What you’ll do

•   Lead the delivery of multiple concurrent housing projects across the full lifecycle

•   Appoint and manage design consultants, builders and contractors, and administer construction contracts, variations and progress claims

•   Maintain a hands-on site presence — inspecting works, coordinating with supervisors and clerks of works, and recommending stages for acceptance

•   Chair PCG meetings and keep projects on program, on budget and moving

•   Manage project budgets, cash flow, risk, governance and reporting through to handover

•   Ensure a smooth transition of completed homes to our Asset Management and Tenancy teams

What you’ll bring

•   10+ years’ experience in property or construction project management, with a proven delivery track record

•   Demonstrated experience managing Class 2 building developments of five storeys and above

•   Sound knowledge of the development lifecycle — feasibility, planning approvals, procurement, construction and compliance

•   Strong financial, contract administration and risk management capability

•   Excellent communication skills and the ability to bring people with you

•   A values-led commitment to social impact

•   Desirable: knowledge of housing funding programs (e.g. HAFF, NHIF), experience with a Community Housing Provider or not-for-profit, and relevant tertiary qualifications
