Assistant Project Manager

Join our Capital Projects team within Facilities Management and play a key role in delivering a diverse portfolio of facility improvement projects across a dynamic, large-scale environment. As an Assistant Project Manager, you will support the planning, coordination and delivery of projects ranging from minor works to complex upgrades, ensuring they are completed on time, within budget and to a high standard of quality.

Working closely with experienced Project Managers, you will contribute to all stages of the project lifecycle from scoping and documentation through to procurement, delivery and financial reporting. You will also have the opportunity to independently manage smaller projects, building your capability while collaborating with a wide range of internal teams and external stakeholders.

This role is ideal for someone with a foundation in project management who is looking to grow their experience in a fast-paced, live operational environment. You’ll bring strong organisational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to adapt to changing priorities, while contributing to meaningful improvements across our facilities.
