An opportunity has become available for an experienced Construction Foreman to join a well-established ACT contractor delivering one of Canberra's most unique construction projects.

This isn't your typical project. You'll play a key role in the delivery of a highly specialised space antenna installation, combining complex civil works with structural construction on a technically challenging site. Working alongside an experienced project team, you'll be responsible for coordinating day-to-day site activities, managing subcontractors, and ensuring works are delivered safely, on programme and to a high standard.

This role would suit someone who enjoys technically interesting projects and wants to be involved in something genuinely different from the usual commercial construction environment.

The Role
  • Supervise daily site operations across civil and structural construction works.
  • Coordinate subcontractors, plant and materials to maintain programme.
  • Drive a strong safety culture and ensure compliance with WHS requirements.
  • Monitor quality and workmanship to ensure project specifications are achieved.
  • Work closely with the Site Manager and Project Manager to deliver project milestones.
  • Identify and resolve site issues before they impact programme.
  • Maintain site records, reporting and daily diaries.
  • Foster strong relationships with clients, consultants and subcontractors.
About You
  • Proven experience as a Foreman delivering commercial, civil or structural construction projects.
  • Ability to manage multiple subcontractors across different work fronts.
  • Strong understanding of construction sequencing and site logistics.
  • Excellent leadership and communication skills.
  • Sound knowledge of Australian construction standards and WHS legislation.
  • White Card and current driver's licence.
  • Trade qualification or relevant construction background preferred.
What's On Offer
  • Opportunity to work on an interesting and unique project. 
  • Long-term pipeline of diverse and challenging work.
  • Supportive leadership team with genuine opportunities for career progression.
  • Competitive salary package based on experience.
If you're looking to step away from standard commercial projects and be involved in a landmark piece of infrastructure that combines civil engineering with structural construction, It would be great to hear from you.
