The Opportunity
Tired of unrealistic site caps and driving hundreds of kilometres across regional Queensland just to check a slab?
We believe supervisors should have the time to actually supervise.
We are seeking an experienced Site Supervisor to oversee a manageable pipeline of up to 10 custom residential builds—all centrally located right here in Hervey Bay.

Your Responsibilities
Manage a Dedicated Cap:
Oversee up to 10 custom homes simultaneously across various stages of construction.

Maintain high standards across our existing trade base and proactively bring reliable local subcontractors on board.
Program & Delivery:
Track timelines tightly, forecast potential bottlenecks, and ensure programs hit handover targets.
Defect Prevention & QA:




Inspect critical stages closely, sign off on structural milestones, and deliver a clean handover.
Take-Offs & Site Admin:
Conduct on-site material take-offs when required, approve orders, and maintain live schedules and site logs in our system.
What We're Looking For
Current QBCC Licence:
Low-Rise Site Supervisor or Builder license (essential).
Custom Residential Background:
Solid experience managing bespoke or mid-to-high-spec residential construction (not just high-volume production).
Autonomous Leadership:
You know how to command respect on-site, solve technical detailing issues on the fly, and hold trades to account.
Organised & Tech-Savvy:
Comfortable running digital programs, handling emails, and logging site records (Buildertrend experience is a major bonus).
What We Offer
Attractive Package:
$135,000 – $145,000 base + Super + Vehicle/Tool of Trade Allowance + Company tech.
Work/Life Balance:
A realistic 10-build limit ensures you can keep on top of your admin and enjoy Hervey Bay's coastal lifestyle.
Strong Back-End Support:
Our office and estimating team handles the heavy paperwork so you can focus on building.
