About the business and the role

Trasan delivers quality construction and infrastructure services to the Pilbara Region. We work on new homes, refurbishments, sheds, patios, and more. Our work is steady, detailed, and built to last — much like our team.

This is a local-only role based in Karratha. If you're the type who prefers staying grounded in your community and seeing projects through from start to finish, this might be the perfect fit.

We're looking for a precise, thoughtful carpenter who works best when they fully understand the task at hand, takes the time to get it right, and values a steady, supportive work environment. You'll work with a crew that respects your expertise, encourages careful planning, and recognises quality over speed.

  • Prefers team success over individual competition
  • Is patient, meticulous, and deliberate with their work
  • Feels pride in being accurate, consistent, and reliable
