Install Supervisor (Propping) - Melbourne

Install Supervisor (Propping) - Melbourne

Lead the crew today. Run the projects tomorrow.

About Legend Hire

Legend Hire is a family-owned specialty rental company. We engineer, supply, install and remove temporary works for construction and utility contractors in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. Most of that work is propping and shoring, alongside traffic and civil equipment. Our install crews are a big part of why builders keep calling us back.

We need an Install Supervisor who runs safe installs, built right the first time, and who wants a written path to Project Solutions Manager.

The opportunity

You’ll lead Legend’s propping installs from our Spotswood branch, on sites across greater Melbourne. You’ll take an engineered drawing, plan the job and run the crew that builds it, and you’ll look after the builder’s site team along the way. On site, you are Legend Hire.

Plan each install the day before: drawings, components, trucks, crew, access and sequence

Lead a crew of 2–6 installing and dismantling façade retention, needling, back-propping, tramway, tilt panel bracing and transfer propping

Read engineering drawings and load charts, and raise anything that won’t work on site with the Projects Engineer before the crew starts

Own site safety: SWMS, pre-starts, toolbox talks and WorkSafe Victoria compliance. If it’s unsafe, you stop the job

Be the builder’s first point of contact on site, and keep the site manager informed

Capture scope changes in writing, track hours against the estimate and log every job in our systems

Coach and develop your installers, and induct new starters into the Legend way
