Careers

What We Look For

• Care about the work. We want people who take pride in doing roof repairs properly, not just quickly.
• Straight talk with customers. You will be in someone's home or business explaining what you found. Plain language beats jargon.
• Reliability. Showing up when you said you would matters more here than any single line on a resume.
• Respect for the property. Protecting the space, cleaning up, and leaving it better than you found it.
• Safety, every time. Following safe practice is part of the job, not an extra.

Experience in roof repairs or a related trade helps. If you have the attitude and not yet the trade experience, say so, because we do train.

Roles We Hire For

We are a small team, so openings come and go with the work. These are the roles we hire into.

Roof Repair Technician

A proposed hands-on role assessing reported roof concerns, carrying out authorised repairs and contributing clear job notes. The role would suit someone who values careful preparation, tidy work and an honest explanation when further investigation is needed.

Qualifications

• Relevant roofing repair skills and experience appropriate to the work assigned.
• Any qualifications, licences and safety training required for the specific duties, subject to verification.
• An ability to follow an agreed scope and explain observations clearly.
• A willingness to raise safety concerns and ask before proceeding with uncertain work.

Benefits

• Proposed work focused on the listed Canberra service area.
• An intended team approach built around clear scopes and handovers.
• Role-specific development opportunities to be discussed and agreed.

Metal Roofing Repair Specialist

A proposed role concentrating on assessed metal roof repairs, component selection and clear communication about repair boundaries. The work would involve discussing findings with the repair lead and helping keep materials and methods tied to the particular roof being repaired.

Qualifications

• Relevant experience with metal roofing systems and repair work.
• Any trade credentials and authorisations required for the agreed duties, subject to verification.
• An ability to interpret relevant manufacturer information and identify when specialist advice is needed.
• Careful material handling, job documentation and communication skills.

Benefits

• A proposed role with a defined metal roofing focus.
• An intended emphasis on preparation rather than unexplained repair shortcuts.
• Further training and employment arrangements to be discussed for an actual vacancy.

Roofing Trainee or Trade Assistant

A proposed entry pathway for someone interested in learning how roof repair work is planned and supported. Initial duties would be matched to verified training, ability and supervision, without assuming a trainee is ready for unsupervised rooftop work.

Qualifications

• A willingness to learn, follow instructions and ask questions.
• Reliable communication and an interest in practical repair work.
• The ability to carry out agreed duties safely, with suitable training and any reasonable adjustments.
• Required induction or role-specific training to be confirmed before duties begin.

Benefits

• A proposed supervised introduction to repair work.
• An intended learning approach that encourages questions and safe decisions.
• Any formal training pathway and associated support to be agreed for the position.

Customer and Scheduling Coordinator

A proposed customer-facing role handling enquiries, recording roof concerns and coordinating assessment arrangements. The focus would be on accurate information, clear updates and making sure customers know what has been agreed without offering technical diagnoses outside the role.

Qualifications

• Clear written and spoken communication.
• Experience organising appointments, customer records or similar administrative work.
• Confidence keeping accurate notes and handling changing arrangements.
• An ability to recognise when a technical or safety question needs to be passed to the appropriate person.

Benefits

• A proposed role connecting customers with a small repair-focused team.
• An intended emphasis on clear processes and accurate handovers.
• Hours, work location, training and other benefits to be discussed for a confirmed vacancy.
