Pathway to Site Supervisor in around two years, based on performance
The work
Sydney Pressed Metal installs decorative metal panels on ceilings, walls and architectural features.
Every job is different: heritage buildings that are never square, detailed set-outs and finishes that sit in full view of the public.
It's work people notice and you can point to for years.
If you like solving problems on site and getting it exactly right, this is the work.
We've been doing it for 15 years with a team of six, based in Caringbah.
What you'll own
The site: one job at a time, start to finish
The crew: A team of 3-4 to run, including training an apprentice and bringing them up to standard
The result: set-out, installation, finish quality and timeline
The call: you solve problems on site and deal directly with the client
It is a hands-on role: about 80% on the tools and 20% supervising and coordinating.
