This is a key site leadership appointment requiring a proven Structures Foreman capable of taking ownership of the basement, concrete frame and structural works through to topping out, while successfully managing the logistics and programme demands of a constrained inner-city site.

The Role

Reporting to the Site Manager / Senior Site Manager, you will:

• Manage formwork, reinforcement, concrete, post-tensioning, structural steel and precast packages
• Plan and sequence basement, podium and upper-level structural works
• Drive structural cycle times, productivity and programme milestones
• Coordinate subcontractors, labour, plant, materials and crane operations
• Manage deliveries, material movements and structural logistics within a constrained inner-city environment
• Review drawings, specifications and methodologies for constructability and sequencing
• Identify and resolve structural constraints and trade interface issues
• Manage ITPs, inspections, hold points, concrete pours and structural QA
• Maintain rigorous WHS standards across structural activities
• Coordinate interfaces with façade, services, architectural and subsequent fit-out packages
• Monitor subcontractor performance, workmanship and productivity
• Liaise with structural engineers, consultants and project management to resolve technical issues
• Take ownership of the structure through to topping out and handover to following trades

What We're Looking For

• Extensive experience as a Structures Foreman / Structures Supervisor
• Proven experience delivering major commercial or multi-storey building structures
• Strong experience across basement construction, suspended slabs and concrete frames
• Technical knowledge of formwork systems, reinforcement, concrete and post-tensioning
• Proven ability to drive demanding structural programmes and subcontractor performance
• Experience on CBD or constrained inner-city sites highly regarded
• Strong understanding of structural drawings, tolerances, QA and inspection requirements
• Excellent site leadership, planning and problem-solving capability
• Relevant trade background, construction qualifications, licences and tickets highly regarded

We are particularly interested in candidates who have successfully taken basement and multi-level structures through to topping out and understand the additional planning and logistics required to deliver major construction within an inner-city environment.

The Opportunity

This is an opportunity to join a major Australian contractor at the commencement of a significant new Brisbane project, providing the successful candidate with the ability to establish and drive the structural programme from the outset. Backed by a substantial forward pipeline of major Brisbane developments, the position also offers long-term project continuity and future career opportunities beyond the immediate project.

All applications and enquiries will be treated in strict confidence.
