Job Description

T White Building and Construction pty Ltd – Kincumber NSW

n

Are you an experienced carpenter who's ready to step up and help drive the site, not just work on it?

n

Do you take pride in sharp workmanship, clear communication, and keeping the crew moving when the pressure is on?

n

T.White Building & Construction is looking for a Leading Hand Carpenter to join our onsite team across the Central Coast.

n

This role is for someone who brings energy, takes ownership, and knows how to lift the standard of the people around them.

n

Not someone who turns up, clocks in, does the bare minimum, and heads home.

n

About T.White Building & Construction

n

T.White Building & Construction is an architectural residential building company based on the Central Coast.

n

We specialise in high-quality major residential renovations and new builds, working with some of the best architects in the region.

n

We've won Master Builders awards, we've got a full signed pipeline of work through to 2028, and we're building a team that can keep raising the bar.

n

We believe the business wins when the team wins.

n

We're a sports team, not a family. That means clear standards, strong communication, support where it's needed, and everyone pulling in the same direction.

n

The Role: Leading Hand Carpenter

n

Your job is simple.

n

Keep the onsite team moving forward and support the supervisor so projects stay sharp, organised, safe, and productive.

n

You'll be hands-on with high-quality carpentry work, reading architectural and structural drawings, reviewing schedules, helping organise site works,



and making sure the team has what they need to keep momentum.

n

You'll work closely with the site supervisor and project managers, giving clear updates on hardware, materials, delays, risks, and anything that could slow the job down.

n

When something's not right, you'll speak up early.

n

And you won't just point at the problem. You'll help work through the solution.

n

What We're Looking For

n

You've been around long enough to know what good looks like.

n

Ideally, you'll have 8-10 years of carpentry experience, with solid exposure to high-end architectural residential work. You can read plans, understand details, think ahead, and keep quality tight without needing someone over your shoulder all day.

n

You're calm under pressure, but you still bring energy to site.

n

You communicate clearly, stay organised, and help pull the team forward when the day starts getting messy.

n

Experience leading or managing a small carpentry team would put you in a strong position. A Certificate IV in Building and Construction would be a bonus too.

n

Got your own tools? Great.

n

If you've got 5-8 years' experience but the right attitude, solid site experience, good communication, and the ability to grow into the role,



we're open to talking.

n

This role won't suit someone who's just finished their apprenticeship, needs to be pushed every day, communicates poorly, or drags the energy of the team down.

n

We need someone who adds to the site, not someone the site has to carry.

n

What's In It For You

n

You'll be paid a negotiable rate based on experience and demonstrated ability.

n

You'll work on interesting, variable, high-end residential projects with a strong pipeline already signed through to 2028.

n

You'll get clear expectations, support onsite, PPE support, training opportunities, and room to progress as the business grows.

n

You'll be part of a team that values good work, strong standards, and people who take ownership.

n

There's also a decent Christmas break, work-life balance, recognition for strong performance, and the chance to be involved in the direction and growth of the business.

n

This isn't just another carpentry role.

n

It's a chance to step into more responsibility and become a key person onsite.

n

Is This You?

n

You take pride in your work.

n

You think ahead.

n

You communicate before small problems become big ones.

n

You stay calm, but you don't move slowly.

n

You're the person who helps the team lift, not the one waiting around to be told what to do.

n

You want to keep growing in your career, take on more responsibility, and be part of a residential building team delivering quality architectural projects.

n

If that sounds like you, we should talk.
