Cairns, Australia ClearCompany Full time

Your New Company

A privately owned, Brisbane-based builder–developer with 30+ years delivering multi-residential apartments across SEQ. Long-standing, family-style management with a reputation for doing things properly and looking after their people. Strong pipeline and well-run sites, without the ego.

Your New Role

Step in as the 2IC (Leading Hand) on a five-storey apartment project just west of the CBD. You’ll work directly under the Site Supervisor we placed who has been with the business 2 years, taking instructions to coordinate trades, uphold safety and quality, keep the site tidy and on program, and jump on the tools when required. It’s a clear pathway role toward Site Supervisor with a builder–developer that values practical, get-it-done leadership.

What You’ll Need to Succeed

- Trade-qualified Carpenter (White Card; own tools, reliable transport)

- Competent reading drawings, sequencing tasks, and coordinating subcontractors

- Comfortable hands-on when needed while supervising day-to-day activities

- Multi-residential or commercial experience ideal (not essential)

- Strong communication, pride in workmanship, and a steady, team-first approach

What You’ll Get in Return

- $130,000 – $150,000 p.a. (commensurate with experience)

- Work under a genuine, down-to-earth management team with continuity of projects

- Real progression into Site Supervisor with backing from an established builder–developer

- Immediate interviews and an ASAP start
