Project Manager
At Unita, we build spaces where people love to work, shop, stay and connect – from high-end retail and hospitality, to health and commercial fit-outs across Australia. But great spaces don’t build themselves. Great teams do.

We’re looking for a Project Manager who takes ownership of projects from start to finish. Someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment, keeps momentum across complex builds, and works closely with site teams, clients and subcontractors to deliver high-quality projects.
This role sits at the centre of project delivery. You’ll coordinate people, decisions and resources across the full project lifecycle to ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the highest standard.

What you will be responsible for:
- Own the end to end delivery of construction and fit outs

- Coordinate sub contractors, consultants and suppliers
