Job description

Aurem Cladding + Roofing is a growing metal roofing and architectural cladding contractor delivering residential, commercial and industrial projects throughout South East QLD & Northern NSW.

Our work includes metal roofing, re-roofing, fascia and gutter systems, downpipes, insulated roofing systems, architectural wall cladding, flashings and associated roof plumbing works.

We are seeking an experienced Project Manager / Roofing Supervisor who can take ownership of projects from handover through to completion.

The Role

The Project Manager / Roofing Supervisor will be responsible for planning, coordinating and supervising multiple metal roofing and cladding projects across the residential, commercial and industrial sectors.

You will receive projects following acceptance and manage their delivery through pre-commencement, site measure, procurement, installation, quality assurance, completion and handover.

This is not a purely office-based project management role. Regular site attendance, accurate measuring, quality inspections and direct coordination with installation teams are essential.

The successful applicant will be expected to identify issues early, communicate clearly and keep projects moving safely, efficiently and profitably.

Key Responsibilities

• Project Planning and Programming
• Site Measuring and Technical Review
• Material Procurement
• Site Supervision
• Client and Builder Liaison
• Employee and Subcontractor Coordination
• Safety and Compliance
• Cost and Commercial Management

Office and Site Expectations

This is a mobile role combining project administration with regular site supervision. The expected split will generally be approximately:

40% office and project administration

60% site visits, measuring, inspections and coordination

This split will change depending on the active workload and stage of each project.

The role is primarily Monday to Friday; however, roofing projects often require early site starts, delivery coordination and occasional attendance outside ordinary office hours. Reasonable flexibility will be required to manage weather events, urgent site matters and critical project activities.

The position is responsible for coordinating and supervising the work, not operating as a full-time installer. However, the successful applicant must be capable of inspecting work at roof level and providing practical assistance or completing minor rectification and make-safe work when reasonably required.

Required Experience and Qualifications

The successful applicant will ideally have:

• Strong experience in metal roofing & architectural metal cladding.
• Previous experience as a project manager, roofing supervisor, site supervisor or leading hand.
• Strong knowledge of residential, commercial and industrial roofing systems.
• The ability to accurately measure roofs and wall-cladding areas.
• Experience preparing material take-offs and roofing orders.
• The ability to read and interpret architectural, structural and hydraulic drawings.
• Knowledge of roof sheeting, fascia, gutters, downpipes, insulation, safety mesh, flashings and cladding systems.
• A sound understanding of workplace health and safety requirements.
• Demonstrated experience coordinating employees and subcontractors.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Good computer, email and mobile-device skills.
• A Construction Industry White Card.
• The ability to work safely at heights and access active roofing sites.
• Experience using Buildxact, project-management software, Microsoft Office, PDF mark-up programs or similar construction systems would be advantageous.

Personal Attributes

We are looking for someone who:

• Takes ownership of projects and follows matters through to completion.
• Is organised and capable of managing several projects simultaneously.
• Communicates early instead of allowing problems to develop.
• Is confident dealing with builders, clients, suppliers and installation teams.
• Has strong attention to detail and takes pride in finished workmanship.
• Can balance programme, cost, safety and quality requirements.
• Remains calm and solutions-focused under pressure.
• Is firm but respectful when managing employees and subcontractors.
• Understands the importance of documentation and written confirmation.
• Is commercially aware and treats company time and materials responsibly.
• Wants to help build stronger systems within a growing roofing company.

Measures of Success

Performance in this role will be assessed against:

• Projects commencing on time and being delivered in accordance with the agreed programme.
• Accurate site measures, take-offs and material orders.
• Reduced material shortages, reorders and avoidable wastage.
• Labour and subcontractor costs remaining within project allowances.
• Consistent quality inspections and reduced defects or return visits.
• Variations being identified, documented and approved.
• Clear and timely communication with clients, builders and site teams.
• Complete project records, photographs and compliance documentation.
• Safe worksites and adherence to Aurem’s safety procedures.
• Professional management of employees and subcontractors.
• Successful project completion and client handover.

Reporting Structure

The Project Manager / Roofing Supervisor will report directly to the Director.

The role will provide day-to-day direction to:

• Roof plumbers
• Leading hands
• Roofing labourers
• Subcontract roofing and cladding crews
• Specialist suppliers and service providers

The role will work closely with estimating, administration, accounts and company management.

Remuneration and Benefits

A competitive salary package will be negotiated based on the applicant’s roofing knowledge, supervisory experience and project-management capability.

The package is expected to include:

• Salary of approximately $110,000–$135,000 plus superannuation, depending on experience
• Company vehicle and fuel card
• Laptop
• Diverse residential, commercial and industrial projects
• Genuine responsibility and authority over allocated projects
• Opportunity to help shape the systems of a growing company
• Long-term career development within Aurem Cladding + Roofing
