Junior Site Manager

This is a hands on site leadership role covering everything from toolbox talks to quality control.

Our client is a Melbourne based builder working across custom homes, commercial fit outs, extensions and renovations. They cover both residential and commercial work, giving the successful candidate variety across project types rather than a single narrow lane.

This covers direct supervision of all site activities, coordinating and communicating with trades and contractors, and keeping site set up, set out and logistics on track.
