The Role

As Commercial Landscape Supervisor, you'll take responsibility for the day-to-day delivery of projects on site.

You'll be the person keeping the job moving, coordinating your crews, subcontractors, plant and materials while making sure the work is being delivered safely, on program, within budget and to the required standard.

You'll work closely with Project Managers and Construction Managers while also dealing directly with head contractors, superintendents, clients and consultants.

Your responsibilities will include:

Supervising Leading Hands, Landscapers, Apprentices and subcontractors

The position carries genuine responsibility for site delivery, including records required to support variations, claims and notices.

Retaining walls including timber, concrete, masonry, gabion and composite systems
Fencing, pergolas and decking
Concreting and paving
Drainage and irrigation

What We're Looking For

You don't necessarily need to have come through exactly the same pathway.

You may currently be a Commercial Landscape Supervisor, Civil Supervisor, Landscape Leading Hand or experienced construction supervisor ready to step into a broader role.

What matters is that you can run a site, lead people and understand construction.

Ideally you'll bring:

Previous supervisory experience within commercial landscaping, civil or construction
Strong knowledge of WHS requirements on construction sites
Ability to read civil drawings and specifications
Good written communication and site documentation skills
Australian driver's licence
White Card
Full Australian working rights

A trade qualification in Landscape Construction, Carpentry, Bricklaying/Blocklaying or a related trade would be highly regarded, as would experience on Tier 1 or Tier 2 infrastructure projects.

The Person

We're looking for someone who takes pride in their work and wants to get things right.

You'll be comfortable leading from the front, working with different trades and personalities, and taking ownership of what's happening on your site.

You'll also be joining a team that values people who are collaborative, willing to learn and prepared to contribute to a close-knit crew culture.

If you've built your experience in commercial landscaping, civil construction or structural landscape works and you're ready to take ownership of quality projects across South-East Queensland, we'd like to hear from you.
