A Career Few People Know Exists

Join Buildspect as a Forensic Building Consultant

Most construction professionals spend their careers building, supervising, certifying, managing projects or resolving issues as they arise.

Few realise there is another pathway.

At Buildspect, we specialise in forensic building consulting, defect investigations, expert witness reporting and dispute resolution. We help owners, builders, strata managers, insurers, lawyers and tribunals understand what has gone wrong, why it has occurred and what needs to be done to rectify it.

The work is challenging, wide-ranging and intellectually rewarding.

No two days are the same. One day you may be investigating a waterproofing failure, the next preparing an expert report for a litigation matter, and the next meeting with industry professionals to help resolve a complex building dispute.

Who We Are Looking For

We are interested in speaking with experienced construction professionals who:

- Enjoy solving problems and investigating building issues
- Have strong technical knowledge and practical experience
- Communicate clearly and professionally




- Can write concise and well-reasoned reports
- Want to continue contributing to the industry in a different way
- Are looking for a long-term professional career rather than just another job

The Buildspect Difference For more than two decades, Buildspect has been at the forefront of forensic building consulting and dispute resolution. Our team works on some of Victoria's most complex building defect and expert witness matters while mentoring the next generation of consultants.

We provide structured training, practical mentoring and exposure to a wide range of projects to help experienced construction professionals transition into forensic consulting.

Interested?

If you have a background in construction, building surveying, project management, engineering, architecture or a related field and would like to learn more about forensic building consulting, we would welcome a confidential conversation.
