Our benefits

At Calix, we strive to provide work that’s rewarding, innovative and impactful.

As part of a purpose-driven team committed to solving global challenges, our people are given the opportunity to grow both personally and professionally.

We understand our people are more than employees, so we also provide benefits to foster balance and wellbeing, and build connections to community.

Flexible working

Calix offers flexible working arrangements to support employees to be their best at work and home. Core collaboration hours, working from home arrangements and office hours are agreed on a case by case basis.

Calix proactively fosters employees’ professional development and career progression. Through an annual review, every employee creates a development plan with their manager that includes personal development and growth objectives linked to their strengths, passions and interests.Ā 

An Employee Incentive Scheme (EIS) provides employees with rewards for performance to enable them to hold a stake in the company they are working diligently to build, also aligning their interests with shareholders.

Mental health and wellbeing are important aspects of Calix’s strong safety culture. Employees and their families can access an independent Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for confidential support and counselling when personal, family or work-related concerns are affecting their health and wellbeing.

Calix is committed to prioritising and investing in the health and wellbeing of our employees, offering additional leave in some locations for employees to dedicate to their physical and mental health and wellbeing.

Calix supports parents to build connections with their families, offering unpaid and paid parental leave for primary and secondary caregivers in some locations, as well as support to enable parents to maintain connections with the company and a successful return to the workplace.

Calix supports access to healthcare for its employees and their partners, in some locations, by subsidising and providing access to health insurance providers.

Current job opportunities

Calix
Project Manager, Queensland Operations & Customer Projects

We’re looking for a practical Project Manager with an engineering lens to support our Queensland operation and deliver customer projects, site modifications and equipment-related works from start to finish.

This is a hands-on role for someone who likes being close to the work, keeping projects moving, coordinating the right people and stepping in to solve problems when needed. Reporting to the Operations Manager – Australia, you’ll work across Queensland sites, customer environments and internal teams to deliver a varied mix of customer projects, site modifications and operational improvements, all in line with Calix engineering and project management frameworks. It’s well suited to someone who enjoys practical engineering environments, is comfortable working with autonomy, and values good internal coordination as much as getting the job done.

Key accountabilities

You will:

  • Lead end-to-end project delivery across customer-facing projects, site modifications and equipment-related works from scope and planning through to handover.
  • Work closely across the business to keep stakeholders aligned and ensure projects are delivered in line with Calix engineering standards and project management frameworks.
  • Coordinate site and customer execution including access, work packs, contractors and operational interfaces.
  • Drive management of change and ensure documentation and as-builts stay current where plant or equipment is modified.
  • Resolve field issues with practical, fit-for-purpose technical judgement.
  • Maintain project discipline across schedule, budget, risk, procurement and reporting, using fit-for-purpose governance.
  • Champion safety and quality in planning, execution and issue management.

Success in this role will look like:

  • Projects delivered safely, on time and to budget
  • Strong planning and execution across internal sites and customer work
  • High-quality handovers, documentation and updated as-builts where required
  • Trusted relationships with customers, contractors and internal stakeholders
  • Visible practical improvements and reliable follow-through in the field

You’ll bring:

  • Project management experience across the full lifecycle in industrial, manufacturing, utilities, mining, chemical or similar environments
  • An engineering background, ideally degree-qualified, with sound technical judgement in the field
  • Experience delivering site modifications, equipment-related works, customer projects or operational improvement initiatives
  • A practical understanding of maintenance interfaces, management of change and as-built document control
  • Strong internal liaison skills and the ability to work effectively across teams
  • A practical, adaptable approach and the confidence to work well in a lean environment

This is a role where you can see the impact of your work. You’ll stay close to delivery, work with a wide range of stakeholders and be part of practical projects that matter, both to customers and to the way Calix operates.

About us

We are an environmental technology company addressing urgent global challenges in industrial decarbonisation and sustainability.

We apply our patented technology to decarbonise cement, steel and alumina, enable sustainable processing of critical minerals, deliver removal of atmospheric COā‚‚, and develop sustainable environmental products.

This role is connected to our Magnesia Business, which produces and distributes safe and sustainable magnesium-based products used in water treatment and wastewater management. For this role, that means direct exposure to a practical, customer-facing part of Calix with immediate operational relevance, as well as a connection to the broader sustainability challenges our business is helping to solve.

Because there is only one Earth. Mars is for quitters.

Why join Calix

  • Be trusted with meaningful work and clear accountability
  • Be part of a collaborative, down-to-earth team
  • Contribute to work connected to industrial decarbonisation and sustainability
  • Enjoy flexibility, strong benefits and an employee incentive scheme
