Job description

Stryker is a global leader in medical technology — and we’re driven by one mission: to make healthcare better. Our teams design, install, and support world‑class Operating Theatres across Australia and New Zealand. Behind every life‑changing procedure is a space you helped build.

As a Site Supervisor, you’ll be the final touchpoint in a hospital’s journey to a fully integrated Operating Theatre — the last person the customer sees. You’ll manage onsite installations from end to end, ensuring every project runs smoothly, meets the highest quality standards, and exceeds customer expectations.

Based in Brisbane, you’ll travel Monday to Friday (no weekends), working on‑site across ANZ with a supportive, passionate team behind you.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and support contractors during installations, providing technical guidance and resolving onsite issues
• Conduct site visits and quality inspections to ensure compliance with Stryker standards and QIP requirements
• Coordinate SWMS, inductions, and onsite safety compliance
• Manage product receipt, stocktakes, and returns of excess or incorrect items
• Collaborate with Project Managers, Engineers, hospital stakeholders, and construction partners to ensure successful delivery
• Oversee Return to Site (RTS) activities, including scheduling, root cause analysis, and corrective actions
• Raise and manage Product Issues (PIs), including replacements and faulty equipment returns
• Monitor freight, deliveries, and supply chain risks to minimise delays
• Review drawings, BOMs, and site readiness to proactively identify risks
• Support rack building, prewiring, commissioning, and system integration (including data mediators)
• Partner with Sales and Endoscopy teams to ensure theatre readiness and successful go‑live
• Deliver walkthroughs, handovers, and end‑user training where required
• Drive continuous improvement by identifying inefficiencies and cost‑saving opportunities
• Travel across ANZ as required as part of a collaborative team

Who you are: Required experience

This role is for someone hands‑on, detail‑oriented, and confident in leading onsite work. If you love being in control of a project, spotting problems before they happen, and keeping quality high — this is for you.

• Experience working in technical, hands‑on environments (e.g., electrical, AV, or mechanical installation)
• Comfortable reading and reviewing technical drawings
• Strong problem‑solving skills and attention to detail
• Proven ability to work independently on‑site and manage trades and timelines
• Excellent communication skills — able to interact with builders, hospital staff, and internal stakeholders
• Availability to travel Monday–Friday (ANZ‑wide)
• Confident managing installations solo, but also a team player who thrives with support

Preferred Experience

• AV installation or similar technical site work (e.g., TV mounting, electrical fit‑outs)
• Previous experience in healthcare or construction environments
• Site management or contractor coordination experience

Why join Stryker

• Work with a tight‑knit team of 5 who stay connected (even if rarely in the same place!)
• Enjoy weekday‑only travel and reduced weekend demands
• Be supported from day one with structured training and mentoring
• Grow into leading larger projects — with the team behind you
• Access world‑class learning, development, and employee benefits
• Be part of a company that values integrity, impact, and people‑first culture
