  • Mentor new or less experienced team members
  • Assist the Class 1 Supervisor in delivering safe, well-run jobs
  • Maintain clean, safe, and organised work areas
  • Flag delays, hazards, or issues early to prevent disruption

Skills & Experience Required

  • 2–3 years hands-on demolition experience
  • White Card (mandatory)
  • Confident operating tools, equipment, and machinery
  • Strong understanding of safe work methods and PPE standards
  • Reliable, physically fit, and able to work in demanding environments
  • Good communication and teamwork skills
  • Valid driver’s licence and own transport
  • Ability to pass medical and drug & alcohol screening
  • Australian citizenship, residency, or unrestricted work rights
  • High-risk licences - EWP, Forklift (desirable)
  • Asbestos removal qualifications (CPCCDE3014, CPCCDE4008) (desirable)
  • First Aid certificate (desirable)
  • Previous mentoring or small crew leadership experience (desirable)

What We Offer

  • Immediate start - even next week!

  • Competitive pay + penalty rates
  • Supportive, high-performing team environment
