About the Role

We are seeking an experienced and hands-on Remedial Specialist to join our growing team delivering remedial construction, defect rectification, waterproofing, wet area remediation, maintenance, and building repair works throughout Sydney.

This is NOT a site-based project management role. We are looking for a practical, solution-focused remedial specialist who enjoys being on the tools, working across multiple sites, investigating building issues, diagnosing defects, and carrying out remedial repairs.

No two days are the same in this role. You will work across a variety of residential, commercial, and strata properties throughout Sydney, investigating building defects, water ingress issues, and structural deterioration while implementing practical long-term remedial solutions.

We are seeking a genuine remedial specialist, not simply a carpenter or maintenance tradesperson. Applicants must have strong diagnostic ability and experience investigating, assessing, and rectifying building defects and building failures.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys problem-solving, working independently, and taking ownership of projects from investigation through to completion.
