We're particularly interested in operators experienced on:

Excavators

Loaders

Rollers

Backhoes

Experience with road construction, pavement works and earthworks will be highly regarded.

If you're competent across more than one machine, even better – we value versatile operators and provide opportunities to broaden your skills and plant competencies.

Why Join RCG?

Competitive hourly rates + penalty rates

Work away allowance and paid travel time

Plenty of opportunities for overtime and good hours
Stable, ongoing employment with an established FNQ civil contractor

A variety of projects, locations and machinery – not the same job every day

Opportunities for additional training and competencies

A practical, supportive and down-to-earth team environment

The opportunity to work with experienced supervisors and civil construction crews

RCG is also a recipient of the Australian Training Award and Queensland Training Award, reflecting our long-standing commitment to developing and training our people.

About You

We're looking for operators who are confident on their machine, take pride in their work and understand what's expected on a civil construction site.

You’ll need:

Demonstrated plant operating experience in civil construction, roadworks or earthworks

Construction Industry White Card

Current driver's licence

A strong commitment to safety

Ability to work away from home on regional and remote projects

Willingness to complete a pre-employment medical, including drug & alcohol testing

Higher-class driver's licences and experience across multiple items of plant will be highly regarded.
