Leading Hand

Job Description

The Opportunity \n

I'm working with an established head contractor delivering a $26m+ multi-storey hotel development in the Hunter Valley .

\n

With structural works progressing, they are looking for an experienced Leading Hand Carpenter to join the site team from late September / early October.

\n

This is a hands-on Leading Hand position working closely with an experienced Structures Foreman and Site Manager. You'll still have the nail bag on while helping coordinate trades, labour and structural works across a fast-moving site.

\n

The project consists of a multi-level hotel with suspended post-tensioned slabs, multiple deck construction and a rooftop pool/spa , with several work fronts operating concurrently.

The Role \n

\n
• Hands-on Leading Hand Carpenter position
\n
• Assist with delivery of the structural package
\n
• Multi-deck construction and suspended slab works
\n
• Post-tensioned concrete structure
\n
• Coordinate trades and labour on the ground
\n
• Assist with sequencing and day-to-day site planning
\n
• Maintain quality and safety standards
\n
• Work closely with the Structures Foreman and Site Manager
\n
• Help keep multiple work fronts moving to programme
\n

About You \n

This role needs someone who has already worked on multi-deck construction and understands the pace and sequencing involved. Someone coming purely from low-rise or residential carpentry will struggle with the complexity of the structure.

\n

You will ideally have:

\n

\n
• Carpentry trade background
\n
• Previous Leading Hand experience
\n
• Multi-deck construction experience – essential
\n
• Suspended / post-tensioned slab experience
\n
• Commercial or multi-storey construction background
\n
• Comfortable being hands-on while coordinating others
\n
• Strong understanding of structural sequencing
\n
• Forklift / Manitou ticket highly regarded
\n
• White Card
\n
• First Aid advantageous
\n

\n

You'll be joining a good, experienced project team with a Site Manager, Structures Foreman and Fitout Foreman already in place.

\n

The initial project runs for approximately 17+ months , with additional works planned alongside the main development.
