Be part of the team that brings workplaces to life

At Newart Commercial Furniture, we assemble and install quality loose (boxed or flat-pack) furniture across Queensland — from stylish offices and vibrant schools to luxury resorts and modern hospitals.

We're looking for a practical, reliable, and detail-driven Furniture Assembly Supervisor to join our friendly Cairns team.

If you take pride in your workmanship and enjoy seeing great results, we'd love to hear from you — help us deliver top-quality outcomes for our clients, every job, every time

Your Day-to-Day

• Take ownership of furniture assembly jobs from start to finish — both on-site and in our warehouse.
• Work with our Project Coordinator to plan daily and weekly assembly tasks through our on-line portal and face-to-face meetings.
• Lead and support existing contractors to complete assembly projects safely, efficiently, and to a high standard.
• Hands-on assembly and installation of all types of commercial furniture — from office chairs and height-adjustable desks to storage cupboards and steel shelving. Some items don't have detailed instructions, so good problem-solving skills are a must.
• Work across a wide variety of industries and locations around Cairns — every week brings something new.
• Use hand and power tools confidently (no trade certificate required).
• Represent Newart with professionalism, pride, and a positive attitude.
• Enjoy a healthy balance of warehouse and on-site work.

What We're Looking For

• Physically fit and able to handle furniture items safely.
• Skilled with hand tools and comfortable reading assembly instructions.
• Trade-minded with strong practical and problem-solving abilities.
• Computer-literate, you'll need to access our in-house systems for scheduling charts and job dockets.
• Organised and detail-focused.
• Current Australian driver's licence.
• Reliable, team-oriented, and customer-friendly.
• Police check (or willing to obtain one).
• Willingness to travel occasionally for projects.

What We Offer

• Full-time, permanent position with a respected local business.
• Supportive team environment — you'll be valued, not just another number.
• Variety every week — work across offices, resorts, schools, hospitals, and more.
• All tools, uniforms, and training provided.
• Travel opportunities and real room for growth within the company.
• Job security with a company that's expanding across Queensland..

If you take pride in quality workmanship, enjoy hands-on work, and want to be part of a supportive, growing team — we'd love to hear from you.
