Competitive Salary + Company Vehicle + Fuel Card + Mobile Phone + Super

Steel Builder International (SBI) is in a strong national growth phase, delivering high-quality structural steel solutions for industrial, commercial, infrastructure and mining projects across Australia. As demand grows, we're building a performance-driven operations team that delivers projects safely, on time and to the highest standards – and rewards people who help make that happen.

We're looking for a Site Manager who wants clear targets, ownership of outcomes, and real career progression – not just "more of the same" – to join our Western Australia operations.

Why join SBI?

At SBI, performance is visible and rewarded. In this role, you'll see your impact directly through:

• Projects delivered safely, on schedule and to specification
• Positive feedback from clients, subcontractors and project partners
• Strong repeat work and long-term client relationships

In return, we offer:

• Competitive base salary + superannuation

• Fully maintained company vehicle

• Fuel card

• Company mobile phone

• Performance-based incentive program linked to individual and business results

• Ongoing professional development, mentoring from senior leaders, and exposure to major projects across Australia

The Opportunity

Reporting to the General Manager, you will:

• Oversee on-site construction and installation activities for major structural steel projects
• Ensure delivery to scope, schedule, quality, and safety standards
• Coordinate subcontractors and site teams to achieve efficient project execution
• Manage site risks and proactively resolve issues before they impact delivery
• Ensure compliance with project specifications, safety regulations, and company standards
• Engage with stakeholders including clients, engineers, and project partners to maintain strong communication and collaboration
• Drive continuous improvement in site processes and project outcomes

You'll be a key player in ensuring projects transition smoothly from tender handover into successful delivery, setting the tone for operational excellence on site.

Our Performance Culture

Success in this role looks like:

• Safe, efficient, and high-quality site operations
• Projects delivered on time and within budget
• Strong collaboration with subcontractors and internal teams
• Proactive problem-solving and clear communication with stakeholders

We're a team that:

• Sets clear expectations and follows through
• Shares results (good and bad) so we all learn and improve
• Backs people who take ownership and deliver on their commitments

You'll work directly with senior leaders, get visibility across the national pipeline, and have a say in how we continually improve our site management practices.

What You'll Bring

• 5+ years' site management experience in structural steel, metal fabrication, or commercial construction
• Strong leadership skills with the ability to coordinate diverse site teams and subcontractors
• Solid understanding of construction methods, sequencing, and installation processes
• Proven ability to manage site risks and ensure compliance with safety regulations
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
• Degree or trade background in Construction, Civil, Structural, or Mechanical Engineering (steel, welding, rigging, fabrication experience highly regarded)
• Experience with Tier 1–3 commercial or industrial builders
• Exposure to offshore teams or international collaboration is a plus
