About us
Kilcomer Group is a specialist structural concrete and labour hire contractor delivering works for tier-1 and tier-2 builders across QLD, NSW, ACT and SA.

Attend site walks, inspections and progress meetings with clients and head contractors, and represent Kilcomer's position on technical matters
Maintain and update the construction program, tracking actual progress against milestones and flagging slippage early
Order and coordinate site materials, plant and consumables to suit the program
Support the site team on setout, reinforcement checks, pour preparation and daily delivery
Review drawings and specifications, raise RFIs, and manage technical queries through to resolution
Contribute to site safety and environmental compliance alongside the supervision team
