Job description

NSW Bella Vista | Permanent, Full-time | Travel and work away from home required

We're growing across the Southern Region, and we need a supervisor who can grow with us!

This is a genuine multi-discipline role with civil, drilling, piling, concrete and rope access, often running in parallel on the same site.

The Role

This is not a single-trade supervisor position. You'll be coordinating multiple crews and work fronts, making decisions on the ground and working closely with Project Managers and Engineers to keep the job safe, productive and on program.

The role involves regular travel and working away from home, including regional and remote projects.

You'll be taking ownership of daily site operations, resource allocation, productivity, safety compliance and quality outcomes on technically challenging projects.

We're looking for a proven Supervisor, not someone taking their first step into supervision.

What you'll be doing

• Plan and sequence daily activities to meet program targets
• Allocate plant, labour and subcontractors across multiple work fronts
• Drive productivity while holding the line on safety standards
• Ensure compliance with project specifications and QA requirements
• Keep site and project management in the loop with clear, timely updates

Some of the must-haves

• Experience within the civil construction industry, including managing multiple crews or trades on the same project
• Hands-on background in at least two of: civil works, ground drilling, piling, concrete structures, or rope access
• Strong leadership and decision-making under pressure
• Solid grasp of construction safety systems
• White Card (Construction Industry Induction)
• Current Australian driver's licence
• Genuine willingness to work away from home and travel when the project calls for it

Bonus points for

• First Aid/CPR training
• Geotechnical or specialist ground engineering experience is highly regarded, as is experience working in regional or remote environments
