We’re looking for a QA/QC Officer to own quality on the KGL (Jervois Copper) Project in the Northern Territory. Reporting to the Project Manager, you’ll work on site on a FIFO roster, flying out of either Darwin or Brisbane. Your job is to make sure every building and module is fabricated, transported, installed and handed over to NCC, Australian Standard and client requirements. You’ll be the person with the confidence to call a hold point, and also the person who helps crews get it right the first time.

Key responsibilities

Preparing and maintaining the Project Quality Management Plan and Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs), including hold and witness points

Inspecting at every stage, from factory production and dispatch through receipt on site, lifting, installation, connections, weatherproofing and services interconnection

Coordinating hold point inspections with certifiers, engineers, the client and third-party inspectors

Verifying testing and commissioning, such as electrical, plumbing, fire systems and waterproofing flood tests

Managing non-conformances, root cause analysis and corrective actions through to close-out

Running internal audits of site, supplier and subcontractor processes

Checking that building products have the right evidence of suitability, such as CodeMark certificates and certificates of conformity

Compiling complete handover packages, including compliance certificates, warranties, O&M; manuals and as-builts

Delivering quality inductions and toolbox talks, and reporting monthly on quality KPIs





What we’re looking for

At least 3 years’ experience in construction, building or manufacturing quality roles

Experience in modular, prefab or off-site construction, or on remote and mine-site projects, is highly regarded

Strong knowledge of the NCC/BCA and relevant Australian Standards (e.g. AS 1684, AS/NZS 4600, AS 3740, AS/NZS 3000, AS/NZS 3500)

Hands-on experience with ITPs, hold and witness points, non-conformance management, root cause analysis and internal audits

Experience working within an ISO 9001 quality management system is preferred

Ability to read architectural, structural and services drawings and produce clear inspection and handover documentation

Confidence with digital QA and document control systems, Microsoft Office, Teams and SharePoint

Solid attention to detail, objectivity and the confidence to address quality issues with site crews

Ability to work a 3/1 FIFO roster from Darwin or Brisbane in a hot, remote environment, including working at heights and long periods on your feet

White Card and current Australian driver licence

Ability to pass a National Police Check, pre-employment medical, and drug and alcohol testing





Ability to complete KGL site inductions

Right to work in Australia

Advantageous

A trade background such as carpentry

Cert IV or Diploma in Building & Construction, or a qualification in quality, engineering or a related field

ISO 9001 Internal or Lead Auditor certification

Working at Heights and First Aid certificates

What we’re offering

A landmark project. Own quality on the KGL Jervois Copper Project, one of the Northern Territory’s major mine developments. It’s a high-profile build you’ll be proud to have on your CV.

Excellent remuneration. A highly competitive salary plus superannuation, reflecting your experience and the remote nature of the role.

A great roster. 3 weeks on / 1 week off FIFO, with flights from Darwin or Brisbane.

Real ownership. You’ll be the quality lead on site, with the autonomy to set the standard and the backing to enforce it.

A great team. Work alongside experienced project managers, supervisors, designers and crews who take pride in delivering quality, every time.

A growing company. Northern Transportables is expanding Australia-wide, with a new office in Adelaide, so there’s real opportunity to grow with us beyond this project.

A values-driven culture. Our SPARC values (Safety, Performance, Accountability, Respect and Continuous Improvement) aren’t just words on a wall. They’re how we work every day.

Support from day one. Full inductions, PPE supplied, and a strong focus on safety and wellbeing on site.
