About the role

We're looking for a Construction Surveyor to join us full-time, working on sites across Victoria with a base at our Chirnside Park office. You'll be on-site delivering setouts and levels for residential, commercial, and civil construction projects, working directly with builders, developers, and site supervisors to keep projects moving accurately and on schedule. We take a collaborative, problem-solving approach on-site rather than just providing measurements, with close coordination between our field teams and office support to keep every project running seamlessly.

Key responsibilities

- Carry out construction setout surveys on residential, commercial, and civil sites using total stations and related equipment
- Set out levels, grades, and reference points to guide construction activity
- Ensure setouts comply with project drawings, specifications, and survey regulations
- Respond quickly on-site to keep projects moving and minimise downtime for builders and developers
- Work closely with builders, developers, and site supervisors to deliver accurate, timely survey data
- Coordinate with our office and admin team to keep site information and records up to date
- Prepare and maintain accurate site records and survey reports
- Adhere to workplace safety standards and site-specific requirements

About you

- A degree, diploma, or relevant qualification in Surveying or Geospatial Science (or currently working towards one)
- Experience in construction surveying (preferred, but not essential for junior applicants)
- Proficiency with survey equipment (Total Station, GNSS, AutoCAD, or other surveying software)




- Confidence reading and interpreting construction drawings and site plans
- Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills on-site
- Comfortable working independently on-site and coordinating with builders and site teams
- A valid driver's licence and reliable transport
- Physical ability to carry out fieldwork in all site conditions
- Based in Melbourne, with the ability to travel to our Chirnside Park office

Benefits

- Family-run business with a supportive team and genuine culture
- Steady, varied pipeline of work — from residential and medium-density housing to apartments and commercial builds — with major builders and developers across Victoria
- 30+ years of industry reputation for accuracy and quality
- Career growth, with mentorship and professional development opportunities
- Flexible schedule to suit work-life balance
- Company car, plus a company phone or a bring-your-own-device plan — whichever suits you
- Immediate start for the right candidate
