About the position
We require a contract Site Manager to join our NSW and QLD teams on a casual or contractor basis. We are actively growing across Australia and looking to connect with and develop ongoing, long term relationships with experienced Site Managers for current and future projects.
The type of work that the Site Manager will be required to oversee includes:
- Structural steel installation, mainly staircases and support beams
- Handrail and balustrade installation
- Timber treads and timber handrail installation
- Site painting of elements
- Glazed balustrade installation
- Miscellaneous trades associated with stair projects including joiners, plasterers, floor layers
Typically, a fit-out type site manager or registered builder could be ideal for the role, but prior experience in structural steel is also a major plus.
The main role is to oversee all aspects of the installation process, including:
- Organizing and scheduling labour/ subcontractors for each site such as:
- Carpenters, steel-erectors, riggers, welders, glaziers, painters, core-drillers
- Liaising with Company Project Managers and office staff
- Liaising with workshop to ensure parts and materials are ready for each site as required
- Problem solving and quality control
- Site set outs for positioning of items
- Liaising with builder at each site
- Limited site measuring
- Programming of site install timelines
The Site Manager reports to the Senior Site Manager and the Project Management team who are based at the Sydney Olympic Park office.
What we are looking for
Successful candidates will have:
- Training and background from the building and construction industry, with particular emphasis on fit-out experience or specific stair and structural steel installation experience
- Able to drive performance from subcontractors without getting off-side.
- An eye for detail. Our work is high quality and the candidate needs to be their own quality control officer. For example, you may not know how to weld but you need to know what is acceptable as far as appearance and strength.
- Trustworthy and responsible. The candidate will be required to keep a log of their activities and be accountable for their time
- Problem solving ability.
- Very well presented, with strong written and verbal communication skills. This role is the face of Asentis on our sites and must fit with our values of integrity and professionalism.

- Computer literate. Must be competent in the use of basic computer functions such as Outlook, Word and Excel
- Able to demonstrate organizational skills, especially personal
- Flexible with hours and no stranger to early starts
