About Atomic Projects

Atomic Projects is a Sydney remedial builder. We fix and upgrade existing apartment buildings (Class 2 strata) on projects from $500k to $2M. We do the work with our own crews and real systems, and we don't take shortcuts. Learn more at atomicprojects.com.au.

What is remedial work?

Remedial building means fixing defects and wear in buildings people already live in. Our day-to-day work includes:

- Waterproofing: balconies, podiums, planter boxes, roofs and wet areas, including flood testing before handover
- Concrete repair: concrete cancer, spalling, crack injection and reinforcement treatment
- Facade work: render and cladding repairs, sealants, brick and masonry repairs, repainting
- Fire safety upgrades: fire doors, penetration sealing and compliance works
- Capital works: balustrade replacement, balcony upgrades and common-area works

Most of our sites are occupied. Residents are living there while we work, so tidy sites, clear communication and respect for people's homes matter as much as the trade work.

The role

You're a working leader. You'll spend most of your day on the tools, moving between our live remedial sites across Sydney and running small crews where they're needed most. You keep quality up, make sure hold points and flood tests happen on time, and back up our site manager and project managers.

We're growing to two delivery teams. This role is built to step up into a working Site Manager position within 6-12 months,



with a review at 6 months. We promote from within.

- Daily pre-starts, toolbox talks and safety compliance
- Check work against method statements before inspections and hold points

Skills and experience
- Trade qualification or proven remedial experience
- White Card and driver's licence
- Experience leading a small crew on site
- Solid grasp of waterproofing, concrete repair or facade work
- Working at Heights, EWP or Confined Space tickets an advantage (we fund what's missing)

What's on offer
- $48-55/hr, paid weekly
- Award allowances paid in full
- Full-time, steady Sydney pipeline
- Tickets funded
