  • Currently studying (or recently completed) a building, construction management or similar course
  • Strong work ethic and willingness to learn
  • Good communication and organisation skills
  • Driver's license and own transport
  • Computer literacy (Microsoft Office, google sheets, emails, etc.)

What We Offer:

  • Mentorship from experienced builders and project managers
  • Diverse hands-on experience across a variety of projects
  • A supportive team environment where your contribution is valued
  • Pathway to long-term career progression within the company
  • Work-life balance and a great team culture
