Civil Supervisor – Urban Infrastructure

  • Projects across Greater Brisbane
  • Monday to Friday
  • Permanent
  • Urban Civil Infrastructure
  • On offer - $150K base + super + vehicle

If you’ve built your career in the trenches — boots on the ground, leading crews, solving problems before they even hit the Gantt chart — this one’s for you.

This isn’t just another gig supervising drainage or roadworks. This is your chance to lead from the front with a Tier 3 civil contractor that’s steadily becoming one of Brisbane’s go-to names for high-quality urban infrastructure delivery.

We’re talking $5–20M projects across council road upgrades, subdivisions, rail minor works, industrial estates, and airport precincts. Real projects. Real budgets. Real impact.

 

What Makes This Role Different

  • Monday to Friday Gig. Enjoy your weekends.
  • Variety with Stability – You’re not stuck on one site forever. Projects rotate every few months with fresh challenges.
  • Backed to Lead – You’re not babysitting crews — you’re running the show. Coordinate with engineers, manage subbies, and set the pace.
  • Culture That Has Your Back – No egos. No politics. Just a straight-up crew that values honesty, hard work, and accountability.

 

What You’ll Bring

  • A proven track record leading civil crews on roads, subdivisions, earthworks, utilities, and concrete works
  • A good, honest attitude and strong work ethic — you lead with integrity and leave your ego at the gate. There’s no room for BS here — just a solid crew working hard and backing each other
  • Strong on-site coordination skills with a sharp eye for safety, quality, and productivity
  • The ability to juggle people, plant, and problems — and still deliver on time
  • A team-first mindset — we work hard, but we have fun doing it. This business is built on relationships, mentorship, and stability. In return, we expect honesty, trust, and commercial awareness to drive project performance and budgets.

 

What’s on the Table

  • $150K base + super + vehicle + fuel card
  • Permanent position with a growing civil contractor that values boots-on-the-ground leadership
  • Brisbane-based projects — be home every night
  • Long-term stability — we back our crews to succeed and stay

 

Ready to Step Up?

If you're the kind of Supervisor who earns respect by being in the thick of it — not just pointing from the ute — this is your chance to lead crews that build what matters.
