BAZ Projects on the Sunshine Coast is offering a trainee roofer position designed to teach the trade from scratch. You’ll be on roofs from day one, hands-on, building real skills under supervision while earning.
With commitment and hard work you can progress to higher pay as your skills grow, gaining practical experience that lasts a lifetime and opens up a solid trade career in outdoor, physical work.
This is your way into a trade that actually pays — and a skillset you'll have for life.
I'm a young roofer with 5 years in the game, running my own crew on the Sunshine Coast, and I'm looking for someone to work beside me every day and learn the trade properly. From day one you're on roofs, hands-on, picking up real skills.
Just show up, work hard, and actually want to learn. Put the effort in and there's a real path here: better pay as your skills grow, and the kind of trade experience that sets you up for life, not just a pay cheque this week.
