  • Strong ability to interpret construction drawings, specifications and project programs.
  • Sound knowledge of applicable building requirements, Australian Standards and site WHS practices.
  • Proven ability to coordinate multiple trades and maintain high standards of workmanship.
  • Practical problem‑solving skills, attention to detail and the ability to anticipate issues.

  • Competence with construction management software and Microsoft Office.
  • A current driver’s licence, White Card, and completed asbestos and silica awareness training.

What we offer
