• Providing excellent customer service and communication
• Working with internal systems and digital platforms to track jobs
• Delivering and collecting small cabins on a trailer (approx. 2 days weekly)
• Ensuring compliance, safety, and high operational standards
• Leading by example and contributing to continual improvement

What We’re Looking For

• Previous management experience or someone ready to step up into their first leadership role
• Confidence towing trailers and driving a ute
• Strong computer skills and ability to learn new systems
• Organised, practical, and able to plan ahead
• Excellent communication and problem‑solving abilities
• A proactive approach and willingness to get stuck in

What’s In It for You

• Leadership opportunity within a well‑established and growing business
• A mix of office‑based coordination and outdoor practical work
• Supportive team environment
• Stable, full‑time role with variety each week
