Outstanding Construction is on the hunt for a Leading Hand Carpenter who's ready to own the standard on site.
This isn't an entry point into leadership - it's for someone who already leads.
You'll support site supervisor and assist to run the day-to-day on site: setting the pace, checking the work, mentoring the team, and making sure every stage reflects the standard we promise our clients.
If you take pride in premium carpentry, spot problems before they become expensive, and back your apprentices and carpenters every day, we want to hear from you.
Outstanding Construction is a premier residential building company servicing Brisbane and surrounding suburbs.
Our vision is to enhance the quality of life for our clients by creating well-designed, thoughtful and functional homes - and to give our team a genuinely supportive place to build their careers.

INTEGRITY

PASSION
WHAT YOU'LL OWN
Execution & Quality - premium carpentry to the Outstanding Construction standard, plans read right the first time, and rework kept at zero
Site Discipline & Safety - site opened safely, run clean, and locked up every afternoon; PPE and SWMS are non-negotiable
Team Leadership & Culture - daily mentoring for apprentices and carpenters, leading by example and setting the tone
Efficiency & Planning - work planned 2-3 days ahead, materials ordered before they're needed, bottlenecks spotted early
Daily Reporting & Communication - timesheets done daily, issues raised early,



and your Site Supervisor always knows where things stand
About you:
Qualified carpenter with genuine experience in carry out project from footings to completion
Current White Card
Own reliable trade vehicle and/or trailer and valid driver's licence
Trade vehicle or trailer that has the capacity to carry 5.4m lengths of timber and sheet of ply
Own tools and PPE
Comfortable carrying out tasks unsupervised and making the calls
A natural leader who mentors without being asked - and gets a kick out of seeing apprentices improve
Excellent communicator with the team, other trades and clients
High attention to detail and no tolerance for sloppy work or unresolved defects
Organised and forward-thinking - always 2-3 days ahead, never caught out
Calm under pressure with a solutions-first mindset when things don't go to plan
The ideal candidate is also comfortable turning a hand to related trades - concreting, plaster sheeting or roofing - if the project calls for it.
Must have a full set of own tools for role and take pride in maintaining own tools.
What we offer:
A supportive, close-knit team that backs you in and out of work
Real input into how the site runs - your standards become our standards
A pathway to grow within the company as it continues to expand
If you're ready to lead a site that reflects real craftsmanship, and join a team that takes care of its people, we'd love to hear from you.
