Job description

Experienced Chippy Wanted | Leading Hand Carpenter

Gun Chippy Wanted | Leading Hand Carpenter

Are you a qualified chippy who's ready to take the next step? Want better money, a better crew and your Fridays back?

There's a better way to do things.

We're looking for a switched-on, experienced Chippy to step into a Leading Hand Carpenter role and take charge of our framing operations. Work is located across Brisbane’s Southside and the Ipswich region.

Here’s what you get:

$60 per hour on wages or $75 per hour ABN.

4-day working week – with Fridays off most weeks.

Paid weekly – no waiting around for your money.

Ongoing work – consistent projects and job security.

Great team culture – hard work, a bit of humour and good people around you.

A boss who actually cares – you're a person, not just another number.

Room to grow – take on more responsibility and build your future with us.

What we’re looking for:

We're after a gun chippy who isn't afraid of a hard day's graft.

Someone experienced, capable and confident enough to take ownership of a framing job from start to finish.

You’ll be responsible for leading and coordinating the framing crew, planning the workflow, keeping the job moving and making sure everything runs smoothly.

From flicking out the slab and setting out, through to reading plans, understanding engineering and South East Queensland tie-down requirements, managing the frame and completing quality checks.

We’re looking for someone who can run the show, make decisions, problem solve and keep the team accountable without someone looking over their shoulder.

Our work ranges from low-set homes and townhomes to high-end custom builds.
