Project Assistant (Construction)

Ready to build your career from the ground up?
We are looking for a sharp, organised, and motivated person to join our office team. If you enjoy making sure everything is in its right place and like seeing a project come to life, this is for you.
You won't just be "doing paperwork"—you’ll be the engine that keeps our construction projects moving.

What you’ll be doing:
•	Connecting the dots: Emailing suppliers and subcontractors to get the best quotes for materials and services.
•	Making sense of the data: Using Excel to create and manage spreadsheets that track our costs and progress.
•	Telling the story: Compiling project reports that show exactly how the build is going.
•	Keeping us on track: Ensuring all site documentation and safety records are organised and up to date.

Why you’ll love it:
•	Real-world impact: You’ll see your work translate into real buildings and infrastructure.
•	Fast-paced environment: No two days are the same, and the office is where the action happens.
•	Growth: You’ll learn the business side of construction—a skill set that is highly valued and in high demand.
•	Opportunity: To learn new skills and full support in pursuing further education as an estimator, QS or PM 

What we’re looking for:
•	A recent graduate – we will provide full training in the new role. An interest in business or construction helps.
•	Someone tech-savvy and comfortable with Microsoft Excel, Word and Outlook.
•	Great communication skills—you’ll be talking to/emailing everyone from site managers to external suppliers.
•	A "get it done" attitude.
