Description:
Be Part of Something Bigger — Join One of South Australia’s Fastest-Growing, Most Innovative Trade Businesses
At Need Trade Services , growth isn’t just a goal — it’s part of who we are. Since starting in 2017 with a team of six — four plumbers, our Director, and one business support staff member — we’ve steadily developed into a well-established, multi-trade organisation. Today, we employ over 25 professionals across our plumbing, building, roof plumbing, and business support divisions — and we’re just getting started.
What sets us apart? It’s not just the scale of our growth — it’s the way we’ve grown.
We’ve built a business where people genuinely matter . Our success is driven by a culture that values Collaboration, Innovation, Communication, Trust, Respect, Quality, and Culture . We’re proud to have created a workplace where your ideas are heard, your growth is supported, and your work truly makes an impact.
Our teams are backed by a strong and experienced business support crew who take care of the logistics, admin, and scheduling — so our tradies can focus on doing what they do best . We don’t set sales targets, and we don’t expect our staff to upsell. You're here to deliver high-quality work, not play salesperson .
All of our clients are business-to-business (B2B) — meaning no high-pressure residential work or awkward upsells. Instead, you’ll work with commercial clients on well-managed projects , with consistent expectations and a clear focus on quality.
Why Join Us?
- You’ll grow with us . All of our current leaders started on the tools at Need Trade Services. We believe in developing talent from within.
- You’ll be supported . With a strong business support team behind you, you’ll have what you need to do great work — without the distractions.
- You won’t be expected to sell. We’re about quality, not quotas. No upselling, no sales pressure — just pride in your craft.
- You’ll be part of a real culture . We walk the talk when it comes to work-life balance, respect, recognition, and communication.
When you join our team, you're not just taking a job — you’re stepping into a workplace where you’re valued, trusted, and supported to succeed.
