Job description

Love working with vehicles and machinery? Turn your practical skills into a rewarding career!

Tired of working on the same building site every day? Put your carpentry skills to work somewhere different!

Perhaps you've spent years working in residential or commercial construction and are looking for a change of pace, or you already have experience in building maintenance, repairs or rural infrastructure.

At Woodlands Enterprises, no two days are quite the same!

We're looking for an experienced, reliable and hands-on Qualified Carpenter to join our team, maintaining, repairing and improving buildings, structures and infrastructure across our farms and production facilities on the Sunshine Coast.

This isn't your typical carpentry job. One day you could be repairing a building, the next constructing a new work area, replacing doors or cladding, or finding a practical solution to an infrastructure problem.

You'll have the opportunity to use your full range of trade skills, work independently and take ownership of projects from start to finish.

About the Role

Reporting to the Manager – Transport and Field Services, you'll be responsible for undertaking skilled carpentry, building maintenance, repairs and minor construction works across Woodlands' farms and production facilities.

You’ll play an important role in ensuring our buildings, structures and operational infrastructure remain safe, functional and well maintained.

This is a varied, hands‑on position suited to a qualified Carpenter who enjoys working independently, tackling different challenges and finding practical, cost-effective solutions.

Your key responsibilities will include:

Undertaking a broad range of carpentry, building repairs, maintenance and minor construction works across our farms and facilities.

Repairing, replacing and installing doors, frames, walls, floors, ceilings, cladding, roofing components and other building structures.

Identifying building defects, deterioration and maintenance issues and recommending practical, long‑lasting repairs.

Undertaking preventative maintenance and improvement projects to extend the life of our buildings and infrastructure.

Working cooperatively with tenants, maintenance personnel and other trades to complete repairs and projects safely and efficiently.

You’ll work across a range of different sites and environments, with plenty of opportunities to apply your experience, initiative and problem‑solving abilities.

About You

We're looking for a qualified tradesperson who enjoys working with their hands, takes pride in their workmanship and can confidently manage a variety of carpentry and maintenance tasks.

You might come from a residential or commercial building background, or have experience in property maintenance, facilities management, agricultural or industrial environments.

What’s important is that you’re practical, dependable and comfortable taking responsibility for getting the job done properly.

To be successful, you’ll bring:

Certificate III in Carpentry or equivalent recognised trade qualification.

Demonstrated experience working as a qualified Carpenter, with strong skills in building repairs, maintenance and construction.

A current driver’s licence and willingness to travel between Woodlands sites.

The ability to work independently, assess maintenance issues and develop practical solutions.

Competence in using carpentry hand tools, power tools and associated equipment.

A strong commitment to workplace safety and quality workmanship.

Good communication skills, a reliable work ethic and the ability to work cooperatively with others.

Just as importantly, you’ll be someone who shows initiative, enjoys solving problems and takes pride in leaving every job completed to a high standard.

Ready to Put Your Carpentry Skills to Work Somewhere Different?

If you’re a qualified Carpenter looking for a job that offers genuine variety, independence and long‑term stability, this could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

Come and join a team where your skills make a real difference and no two days are quite the same.
