About the Role

As a Leading Hand Carpenter, you'll play a key role in the day-to-day coordination, management and delivery of our commercial fit-out projects.

Working closely with our Head of Commercial Fit-Out, Project Coordinators and office support team, you'll combine hands-on carpentry, site leadership, trade coordination and quality control to ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently and to a high standard.

This is a wide-ranging leadership role where your responsibilities will depend on the size and complexity of each project. On smaller jobs, you'll take a more hands-on approach, while larger projects will require a greater focus on supervising teams, coordinating trades, managing site activities and driving productivity.

We're looking for someone who is equally comfortable picking up the tools when required or taking charge of a busy commercial fit-out site.

Your responsibilities will include:

- Leading and coordinating carpenters, apprentices, plasterers and other trades in office

- Managing day-to-day site activities, labour allocation and work sequencing

- Reading and interpreting construction drawings and completing accurate set-out





- Coordinating the installation of partitions, walls, ceilings, bulkheads, doors and hardware

- Overseeing associated fit-out trades, including plastering, aluminium framing and glazing

- Managing material requirements, top-up orders and deliveries to maintain productivity

- Liaising with builders, site managers, subcontractors and TTC's project team

- Monitoring workmanship, quality, safety and site presentation

- Identifying and resolving on-site issues to keep projects moving

- Assisting with site documentation, reporting and project administration

- Undertaking hands-on carpentry work as required, depending on project requirements

This position offers the opportunity to take genuine ownership of your projects while having the support of an experienced management and office team behind you.

- Premium commercial office fit-outs

- Commercial refurbishment projects
