POSITION INFO:

The Opportunity

A growing waterproofing company is looking for a hands-on, energetic and responsible Team Leader to lead a team of 4–5 employees and take ownership of waterproofing projects from start to finish.

This is not a desk-based supervisory role. We are looking for a go-getter and self-starter who sees what needs to be done and gets involved — without waiting to be told.

The successful candidate will lead from the front, work alongside the team, climb roofs, perform physical work and take responsibility for the quality, productivity and completion of projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and motivate a team of 4–5 employees.

• Work hands-on alongside the team and lead by example.

• Plan daily work and ensure materials, tools and equipment are ready.

• Take ownership of project progress, quality and deadlines.

• Identify problems and find practical solutions without waiting for instructions.

• Ensure high-quality workmanship and minimise client comebacks.

• Communicate professionally with clients and represent the company on site.

• Maintain a safe, clean and organised working environment.

• Train and guide less experienced team members.

What We're Looking For

Most importantly, we need someone who LIKES TO WORK. Someone who is:

• A self-starter and natural go-getter.

• Proactive and takes initiative.

• Reliable, punctual and accountable.

• Energetic and physically fit.

• Practical, hands-on and good with tools.

• A natural problem-solver who can think on their feet.

• Comfortable taking responsibility and making decisions.

• Confident leading a team and holding people accountable.

• Proud of the quality of their work.

• Honest, trustworthy and client-focused.

• Able to work independently without constant supervision.

• Willing to learn and develop new skills.

Requirements

• Previous team leadership/supervisory experience is advantageous.

• Practical experience in construction, maintenance, handyman work or a similar environment is advantageous.

• Waterproofing experience is not essential – training will be provided.

• Must be comfortable working at heights, climbing roofs and doing physical work outdoors.

• Valid driver's licence essential.

• Own vehicle highly advantageous.

Working Environment

The role involves residential and commercial sites, working at heights, climbing roofs, physical labour and working outdoors in changing weather conditions.

Saturday work may be required when weather affects weekday production.
