FENCER / FENCING INSTALLER — CASUAL | MELBOURNE

Civifence Pty Ltd | Commercial & Infrastructure Fencing | Melbourne, VIC

Immediate start | Casual | $45–$55 per hour + daily travel allowance (per Construction Award)

ABOUT US

Civifence is a Melbourne-based commercial fencing contractor specialising in fences, gates and bollards for the infrastructure and commercial sectors — councils, road and rail authorities, civil contractors, and private businesses. We've built our name on quality workmanship and a genuine can-do attitude, and we're looking for an experienced fencer to join our team and support a strong pipeline of work across Melbourne.

THE ROLE

We need a hands-on, capable fencer who can take a job from concept through to completion. You'll be trusted to read and interpret drawings and specifications, set out the fence line accurately, and carry the installation through every stage to a finished, quality product. You'll also liaise directly with clients on site and, where needed, help manage other staff to get the job done safely and efficiently.

Key responsibilities:

- Read and interpret construction drawings and specifications

- Accurately set out fence lines and gate/bollard locations

- Complete all stages of installation, start to finish, to a high standard

- Liaise professionally with clients and site representatives

- Assist in the on-site management/coordination of other crew as required

- Use apps and mobile devices for site documentation, checklists and communication

- Work safely in line with site rules and our safety standards

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

- Proven experience as a fencer in a commercial or infrastructure setting

- Ability to read and work from drawings and specifications unsupervised

- High standards and strong attention to detail — you take pride in delivering quality work for our clients

- A genuine can-do attitude and pride in your work

- Comfortable using smartphones and apps for day-to-day site tasks

- Your own reliable vehicle and current driver's licence

- Your own hand tools (Civifence will supply specialist tools and equipment for installations)

- Willingness to be engaged as a direct employee — sole traders/ABN engagement not available for this role

- Able to meet drug and alcohol testing requirements — a number of our sites are subject to random and/or pre-start D&A testing

Highly regarded (training available for the right candidate):

- Experience with chain mesh and weldmesh fencing

- Your own ute, ideally with towing capability

WHAT'S ON OFFER

- $45–$55 per hour based on experience, plus daily travel allowance in accordance with the Construction Award

- Casual role supporting a steady, ongoing pipeline of work around Melbourne

- Specialist tools and equipment provided to support your installations

- Training provided in additional fence types for the right candidate

- Join a supportive, safety-focused team with a strong reputation in the industry
