**Roofing Apprentice - Learn, Earn, and Build Your Future**
Are you looking for a hands-on career where you can learn a valuable trade, work outdoors, and set yourself up with long-term opportunities? We’re offering an exciting chance to join our team as a **Roofing Apprentice**.
This is more than just a job — it’s a pathway into a stable industry where skilled workers are always in demand. You’ll be supported every step of the way as you train, gain experience, and work toward industry-recognised qualifications.
**About the Role**
As a Roofing Apprentice, you’ll be working alongside highly skilled roofers who will teach you all areas of the trade. You’ll get real, on-the-job experience across:
- Pitched and flat roof installations
- Tile and metal roofing systems
- Roof maintenance and leak repairs
- Safe removal and replacement of damaged sections
- General site setup and clean-up
This role is ideal if you like being outdoors, enjoy physical work, and prefer learning by doing rather than sitting behind a desk.
**Day-to-Day Responsibilities**
Your daily work will involve a mix of hands-on tasks, training, and teamwork, such as:
- Assisting with the setup of job sites, including preparing tools, materials, and equipment
- Removing old roofing and helping install new systems
- Learning how to identify roof damage, leaks, and structural issues
- Using hand tools and power tools safely and correctly
- Following health and safety requirements at all times
- Working as part of a crew to keep the site organised, efficient, and safe
- Taking guidance and feedback from senior roofers to build your skills
**What We’re Looking For**
We’re not expecting you to know everything — we’ll teach you. What we do need is someone who brings the right attitude and willingness to learn. Ideally, you’ll have:
- A strong work ethic and reliability — we need people who show up on time and give their best effort
- An interest in building and construction, or simply a desire to learn a trade
- Good teamwork and communication skills — roofing is never a one-person job
- Physical fitness and confidence working outdoors in all weather
- Comfort with working at heights (full safety training is provided)
- A current Australian driver’s licence (essential for travel to job sites)
- No previous experience is necessary — just motivation and a positive attitude._
**What You’ll Gain**
We want you to succeed, and we’ll invest in your development. Here’s what you can expect:
- **Paid Apprenticeship** - earn while you learn
- **Formal Training** - structured training through TAFE or a registered training provider, leading to an industry-recognised qualification (Certificate III in Roofing)
- **Mentorship** - guidance from experienced roofers who’ll share their skills and knowledge
- **Supportive Team Environment** - you’ll never be left on your own without help or direction
- **Career Progression** - opportunities to advance to qualified tradesperson, site supervisor, or even start your own business in the future
**Why Choose Roofing?**
Roofing is a trade that combines skill, strength, and problem-solving. No two jobs are the same, and the skills you gain are valuable across Australia and beyond. It’s a career with:
- Job security in a high-demand industry
- Variety in daily work and locations
- The satisfaction of creating something solid and long-lasting
