Site Foreman

Business Overview

A-Star Sports Nets is a leading force in Australian sports facility construction, specialising in elite sports netting solutions. We partner with major clubs and organisations across the AFL, NRL, Cricket, Rugby, Soccer, and Golf, as well as prestigious private schools, councils, and commercial projects.

Based in Carrum Downs, Melbourne, and expanding in Sydney, A-Star delivers innovative, high-quality projects shaping the future of Australian sports facilities.

Why This Business Is Different

Unlike residential or general construction, our projects offer purpose and prestige — you'll be part of building elite environments for AFL clubs such as Collingwood, Hawthorn, Carlton, Richmond, Western Bulldogs, and Sydney Swans.

You'll contribute to legacy projects that define Australia's sporting landscape — from AFL to Cricket, NRL, Union, Soccer, Golf, and major council and commercial developments.

Your work will leave a lasting mark on facilities that inspire the next generation of athletes.

Who Thrives in Our Culture

Our team values hard work, fairness, loyalty, care, and accountability.

We treat people with genuine respect and maintain a workplace where professionalism and camaraderie go hand-in-hand.

This role suits someone who:

• Is an early riser and thrives on structure and routine.
• Values accountability, discipline, and pride in hard work.
• Embraces feedback, owns their mistakes, and maintains a growth mindset.
• Enjoys hands-on leadership, working on-site with energy and consistency.

Your Role as Site Foreman

Reporting directly to the business owner, you'll lead a small on-site team, coordinating daily operations and ensuring every project runs smoothly.

This is a hands-on leadership role — you'll work alongside your crew while managing quality, safety, and timelines.

You'll be supported by a Project Administrator and Warehouse Manager, allowing you to focus on site performance, efficiency, and outcomes.

You'll liaise with clients, suppliers, and subcontractors to ensure seamless communication and problem-solving.

NOTE: You must be willing and able to travel interstate at short notice and occasionally spend up to a week away, depending on project needs. Flexibility and a can-do attitude are essential.
