About the Role
This is a standout opportunity for a commercially sharp, design-aware Senior Project Manager to take the reins on end-to-end delivery of high-profile commercial fit-out projects across Melbourne.
At Cachet Group, you'll work across the full project lifecycle - from winning the pitch to handing over the keys - collaborating with talented designers, site teams, consultants, and clients to deliver spaces that genuinely impress. You won't just manage projects; you'll shape the client experience, lead a team, and have a clear runway toward broader organisational leadership.
If you're someone who brings structure to a team, leads with confidence, and takes pride in delivering exceptional outcomes - this role was built for you.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll own the full project lifecycle, including:
Project Leadership & Delivery
- Lead projects from pitch to handover: programmes, 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
Stakeholder & Client Management
- Build lasting relationships with clients, landlords, and consultants
- Lead progress meetings, manage expectations, and keep communication clear at every stage
- Coordinate across design, procurement, finance, and project teams for seamless execution
- Manage weekly resourcing and provide timely updates to internal stakeholders
People & Culture
- Mentor junior project managers and actively invest in their development
- Lead by example - calm under pressure, collaborative, and proactive in solving problems
About You
You're an experienced project leader who brings commercial sharpness, emotional intelligence, and genuine passion for the built environment.
- 8+ years' experience in commercial fit-out project management
- Proven ability to lead complex, multi-stakeholder projects from design through to delivery
- Strong communication, presentation, and negotiation skills - you can hold a room
- Commercial literacy and financial acumen: budgeting, forecasting, and reporting are your comfort zone
- High levels of organisation, time management, and attention to detail
- Confidence working independently and making decisions with minimal direction
- A collaborative, empathetic leadership style that gets the best out of those around you
- Alignment with Cachet's values of Joy, Integrity, and Excellence
