Q H & M Birt is a specialist in bulk and detailed earthworks, with a 50-year history of delivering successful projects across regional Australia. We focus on large-scale civil works, including highway upgrades, mining infrastructure, tailings dams, and haul roads.

We're large enough to take on major projects and small enough to maintain a strong, supportive team culture. With our own fleet of plant and equipment, we take pride in what we do and value every team member's contribution.

The Opportunity

We are currently seeking experienced Civil Earthworks Supervisors to join our team on major projects in the Pilbara Region, WA. These projects involve bulk and detailed earthworks for the construction of roads, rail, tailings dams, and infrastructure on remote mining sites.

To be successful, you will have:

  • Significant experience in a Supervisor role on large civil infrastructure or mining-related projects
  • Strong understanding of bulk and detailed earthworks
  • Proven leadership skills with the ability to manage teams, subcontractors, and resources effectively
  • Excellent communication and organisational skills
  • A commitment to safety and quality standards

Responsibilities

Reporting to the Project Manager or Superintendent, the Earthworks Supervisor will be responsible for:

  • Leading and coordinating earthworks crews and subcontractors
  • Delivering works in line with project specifications, safety standards, and production targets
  • Planning and allocating daily tasks to ensure efficient progress
  • Running daily pre-starts and toolbox talks
  • Monitoring quality outcomes and ensuring compliance with contractual obligations
  • Resolving construction and technical issues with engineers and support staff
  • Tracking progress, resources, and equipment requirements
  • Reviewing and confirming quantities for reporting and month-end certification
  • Promoting a strong safety culture by leading from the front
  • Coaching and mentoring team members to support capability and development
  • Ensuring compliance with codes, specifications, and client requirements

What We Offer

  • 2:1 FIFO roster
  • Full-time permanent employment with full leave entitlements
  • Flights from most major cities across Australia
  • Camp accommodation and meals provided
  • Career progression opportunities for motivated individuals
  • A generous loyalty bonus after 12 months of continuous service
  • The chance to work on high-profile projects with a respected civil contractor

Note: Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. All successful applicants must be willing to undergo a pre-employment medical and comply with site-specific safety requirements.
