Building Site Supervisor (Commercial Projects)

Keep the programme on track, the subbies busy and the site safe for the retail and commercial builder in Epping. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

This post is Epping-based, with most of your time spent at a retail and commercial builder.

• Measure completed work for monthly payment certificates
• Order concrete, bricks and steel on time so gangs never stand idle
• Chair the weekly site meeting and record actions for the principal agent
• Keep the site diary, daily labour returns and plant hours up to date
• Run toolbox talks and support the safety officer on Construction Regulations compliance

• National Diploma or BTech in Building or Civil Engineering, or a trade background with site experience
• Working knowledge of the Construction Regulations 2014 under the OHS Act
• Firm with labour, fair with subcontractors
• Code 08 licence and your own reliable transport between sites
• You can read architectural and structural drawings and pick up clashes

• Cellphone and laptop supplied
• Project completion bonus linked to handover date
• Vehicle allowance or company bakkie

• A common mistake is listing only company names. Say what you built, for example "32 walk-up flats, 3 storeys".
• Add a short project table to your CV: project name, type, rand value and your role. Contractors hire on project size.
