Visa sponsorship

Construction · Melbourne, VIC, Australia · Full-Time · Discussed at interview · Visa: Employer sponsored

House frames, roof structures, floors and formwork: a Melbourne builder with residential and commercial projects needs a full-time Carpenter who can handle all of it.

The work starts with the drawings. You will work out sizes, materials and the order of tasks, then measure, cut and shape timber, stand wall frames, set joists and sub-floors and fit door and window frames. Outside there is fascia, cladding and roof sheathing; inside there are prefabricated fittings to install and adjust until they sit right. Repairs, alterations and temporary formwork for concrete round out the job. Suitable qualified candidates may be considered for visa sponsorship.
