You want to do work that makes a positive difference to local communities
You've been developing your skills and are ready to work on projects that matter to the people of NSW. You know that quality matters and that delivering results requires a great team.
In this role, you'll:
Carry out safe, efficient carpentry work to support the maintenance of bridges and drainage structures. This includes operating a range of tools and small plant, completing equipment checks and basic maintenance, and performing both routine and complex manual tasks with limited supervision. You'll work independently as well as collaboratively within a supportive team.
You'll take part in planning, problem solving and continuous improvement activities, while at times guiding apprentices or small work groups to ensure consistently high quality outcomes. A strong understanding of WHS and environmental procedures is essential—covering hazard identification, risk control and correct waste management. You'll also follow established quality procedures, conduct accurate measurements and complete required documentation to ensure all work meets specification standards.
We're seeking a full time carpenter who models safe behaviours, maintains high work standards and can demonstrate the organisation's Five Ways of Leading to deliver positive outcomes for customers, colleagues and the broader community.
This position requires working a nine-day fortnight, with travel away from home for up to 90% of the year. Accommodation and a Living Away from Home Allowance (LAFHA) will be provided.
This is a permanent, full-time role.



Applicants must reside within 100 km to the Hay Works Depot.
