Full Job Description

Ready to build the future?

Imagine leading the on‑site delivery of a first‑of‑its‑kind deployment. One that will shape how complex mechanical systems are delivered across Australia and beyond. Benmax has spent 40 years earning a reputation for excellence, and now we’re taking on some of the most exciting and technically challenging projects in the region. This is your chance to step into a pivotal role, influence how this new deployment model is delivered, and grow your career while you do it.

As our Site Supervisor, you’ll coordinate multiple trades, manage high‑risk lifting and logistics, and keep the project moving safely and efficiently. If you’re a natural problem‑solver who thrives in dynamic environments and values open, honest communication, this is your opportunity to make a real impact.

You can expect to:

Lead and motivate site teams to achieve safety, quality, and productivity targets
Act as the primary on‑site contact for clients, subcontractors, and internal teams
Manage rigging, logistics, crane lifts, and equipment allocation
Coordinate up to four concurrent trade groups in a sequenced assembly environment, including structural lifting and component installation, plumbing fit‑off, electrical connections and fit‑off, and QA/engineering checks.
Identify program, cost, and quality issues early and escalate for resolution
Maintain accurate site records, daily diaries, QA documentation, and progress reports
Ensure compliance with WHS procedures and proactively manage hazards
Promote a positive, solutions‑focused team culture
Mentor tradespeople and apprentices to build capability and maintain high standards

What you’ll bring:

A strong background in rigging and logistics, with proven capability in planning and executing complex lifting operations
Demonstrated experience coordinating multiple trades in a sequenced installation or modular assembly environment
Highly developed construction and WHS knowledge, with a strong understanding of compliance, safe systems of work, and industry standards
Strong capability in hazard identification, risk management, and first aid response
Proficiency with Microsoft Suite, with experience in Procure and Aconex highly regarded
An open, honest communication style. You’re comfortable raising program, cost, or quality issues early to support proactive problem‑solving
Confident working independently in remote settings, with the flexibility to travel nationally and internationally when needed
Minimum five years post‑trade experience, ideally with exposure to complex installation or multi‑trade coordination
Previous site leadership or supervisory experience preferred
Permanent working rights in Australia

Qualifications:

A recognised trade qualification in a relevant field (Mechanical Plumber, Boilermaker/Metal Fabricator, Rigger/Dogman, Electrician or HVAC Technician)
Current high‑risk work licences relevant to rigging activities include Dogman (DG) and Basic Rigging (RB) as essential, with Intermediate Rigging (RI) considered desirable.
General Construction Induction Card (White Card)
Asbestos Awareness and Silica Awareness training
Current First Aid Certificate
Certificate IV in WHS (desirable)
