About Xircon Homes

Xircon Homes is a Melbourne-based residential construction company delivering quality recent homes and second dwellings across Victoria. We operate on five core values:

- We Keep Our Word
- We Speak Up Clearly
- We Take Ownership
- We Don't Go Quiet
- We Rely on Systems Not Shortcuts

Role Purpose

- Run day-to-day site operations across multiple active residential builds
- Ensure every stage is delivered on time, on budget, to Xircon's quality standard, and compliant with the Victorian Building Practice Code (BPC) Guide to Standards and Tolerances
- Act as the on-ground owner of safety, trades, inspections, and client-facing site experience

Key ResponsibilitiesSite Supervision & Quality

- Supervise all stages: site establishment, slab, frame, lock-up, fixing, and final handover
- Conduct stage inspections against Xircon's QC checklists and BPC tolerances; sign off only when standard is met
- Enforce "no defects passed down the line" — reject non-conforming work on the spot
- Maintain daily site diary (progress, weather, trades on site, delays, variations, instructions issued)

Trades & Scheduling

- Coordinate trades, suppliers, and deliveries against the construction program
- Pre-call trades 48–72 hours before scheduled start; confirm materials, access, and prerequisites
- Resolve clashes between trades on site; escalate program slippage early (no going quiet)
- Review and approve trade work before releasing progress claims

Compliance & Safety

- Enforce OH&S; on site: SWMS, inductions, PPE, exclusion zones, fall protection, electrical safety




- Keep site compliant with VBA, WorkSafe Victoria, and NCC requirements
- Coordinate private building surveyor, engineer, and council inspections at required stages
- Maintain site signage, fencing, waste management, and neighbourhood amenity standards

Documentation & Systems

- Update JobTread (or current system) daily — tasks, schedule, photos, variations, checklists
- Capture stage photos and defect records against each inspection checklist
- Process variations on site through the correct variation sheet (electrical, tiling, etc.) — no verbal variations
- Submit RFIs promptly where plans, specifications, or selections are unclear

Client & Stakeholder Communication

- Attend scheduled client site walks
- Communicate progress and issues clearly to the Operations Manager and office teams
- Represent Xircon professionally with neighbours, council, surveyors, and inspectors

Required Experience & Skills

- Minimum 5 years or plus as a Site Supervisor on residential new builds in Victoria
- Strong working knowledge of the Victorian BPC Guide to Standards and Tolerances
- Able to read and interpret architectural, structural, and engineering drawings
- Proficient with construction management software (JobTread or any other system)
- Confident with mobile tools: email, Teams, photo documentation, digital checklists
- Right to work in Australia

Attributes We're Looking For

- Takes ownership — doesn't wait to be chased
- Speaks up early when something is off, instead of hoping it resolves itself
- Systems-driven — follows the checklist, updates the system, documents the decision
- Direct communicator with trades; firm on standards, fair on reasons
- Quality-first mindset — won't sign off substandard work to hit a date
