Leading Hand Carpenter - Decks & Pergolas

HS Outdoor Living | Melbourne | Full-Time | $55-70/hr (based on experience)

HS Outdoor Living builds decks, verandahs and pergolas across Melbourne. We're growing, and we need a Leading Hand Carpenter who can run a crew on site, keep jobs moving, and build to a standard we're proud to put our name on.

This isn't a "keep your head down and cut timber" role. You'll be the one on site making the calls - organising the crew, reading the job, and making sure it's built right the first time.

What you'll be doing

- Running the day-to-day on site as leading hand - organising your crew, sequencing the work, and keeping the job on schedule

- Hands-on construction of decks, pergolas and verandahs, from footings through to final fix

- Reading plans and specs and making sure the build matches them - post and beam sizing, footing depth, roof attachment method

- Keeping the site safe, tidy and compliant





- Liaising with the office and the client on site - flagging issues early, not after they've become expensive

- Mentoring less experienced carpenters and labourers on your crew

What you need

- Cert III in Carpentry (trade qualified)

- Minimum 3 years' experience specifically in decking and pergola construction

- White Card

- Your own tools

- A current driver's licence and reliable transport

- Proven ability to run a small crew - not just work in one

- Someone who takes pride in the finish, not just getting it done

What's on offer

- $55-70/hr, based on experience

- Full time, steady work - we've got a strong pipeline of jobs, not gaps between them

- A genuine leading hand role with real responsibility, not just a title

- Room to grow as the business grows
