The Project

The current works involve converting an existing level one commercial building into 9 apartments - a technically interesting job combining refurbishment, structural modification and new residential fitout under one roof.

The Business

Small, tight-knit leadership team, low staff turnover, and a preference for long-term relationships over rapid growth.

  • Relevant white card and site safety qualifications
  • Experience on conversion or change-of-use projects
  • Commercial fitout background will also be considered, particularly for candidates comfortable transitioning into residential
