WHAT DOES A CONCRETE TESTER ACTUALLY DO?
This is a
mobile, hands‐on role
— not a job where you'll be sitting behind a desk all day.
You'll travel between construction sites throughout your allocated area, working with builders, concrete suppliers, supervisors and project managers to help ensure concrete meets required standards.
Your day may include:
Travelling between construction sites
Testing fresh concrete for strength, durability and compliance
Recording test results using KCT systems
Communicating with site supervisors, builders and concrete suppliers




Transporting concrete specimens to our holding facility or Yatala laboratory
Looking after your testing equipment and company vehicle
Following safety procedures and KCT testing requirements
Every day is different, and you'll spend much of your time working independently out on the road while still being supported by the wider KCT team.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
Experience isn't the most important thing to us.
We're looking for people who are dependable, willing to learn and take pride in doing a job properly.
You could be a great fit if you:
Hold a
current Australian driver's licence
Are reliable and punctual
Enjoy working outdoors and travelling between different locations
Are comfortable working independently
Can follow procedures accurately
Communicate confidently with different people
Want a
long-term career
, not just another short-term job
Previous concrete testing or construction experience is welcome,
but it is not essential.
COMING FROM ANOTHER INDUSTRY?
Don't assume you need laboratory experience to apply.
This role may suit people currently working in
construction, labouring, warehousing, deliveries, logistics, landscaping, manufacturing or other hands‐on roles




who want to move into a technical construction career.
If you're reliable and willing to learn,
we can teach you the testing side of the job.
WHERE CAN THIS CAREER TAKE YOU?
At KCT, Concrete Testing can be the starting point rather than the final destination.
As our business continues to expand into
Soil Testing, Concrete Cutting/Coring and Scanning
, we're creating new opportunities for our people.
Depending on your interests, ability and experience, future opportunities may include:
Senior Field Tester
Soil Field Tester
Concrete & Soil Laboratory Technician
Team Leader & Supervisor positions
Laboratory Management
Technical specialist roles
We believe in developing and promoting our own people wherever possible.
