Implement Project Specific Plans (PSPs) that cover WH&S, quality, and environmental requirements. You'll conduct site inspections, run risk assessments, and complete pre-start safety checklists.
Carry out routine, on-the-job running repairs on the grader and other plant. Ensure your crew’s timesheets, plant sheets, and daily logs are accurate, providing final sign-offs.
Manage staff and plant capacity to ensure the Works Program is completed on time, while assisting in training other staff to upgrade their operating skills.

Demonstrated experience in road maintenance and construction (sealed and unsealed), including the ability to accurately set levels on-site.
Strong knowledge of WHS practices and a proven ability to promote a proactive safety culture.
A proven ability to effectively supervise civil works while simultaneously operating plant and working collaboratively as part of the team.

What we offer

Work/Life Balance: Enjoy a regular fortnightly RDO to disconnect and recharge.
