Are you an experienced builder or senior tradesperson ready to step away from the physical demands and stress of construction — but still want to use your building knowledge every day?
This is an opportunity to join Canberra's leading property inspection company, helping buyers and homeowners understand the condition and performance of their homes.
You'll use your construction expertise to identify building defects, assess risks, and provide clear advice that helps people make informed decisions about one of the biggest purchases of their lives.
The Role
As a Building & Pest Inspector, you will:
• Conduct pre-purchase and pre-sale building inspections on residential properties across Canberra
• Identify compliance issues, building defects and termite risks
• Prepare clear, professional inspection reports for clients
• Speak directly with buyers, homeowners and real estate agents about your findings
• Complete ACT Energy Efficiency Ratings (EERs)
Full training and mentoring will be provided to help you transition into inspections and EER assessments.
About You
You will likely be:
• A qualified builder, carpenter or experienced tradesperson
• Someone with a strong understanding of residential construction
• Detail-oriented with the ability to identify building issues quickly and accurately
• A confident communicator who can explain technical issues clearly to clients
• Looking for a long-term career off the tools
Driver's licence required.
What We Offer
• Competitive salary + super
• Company vehicle, phone and equipment provided
• Full training and ongoing mentoring
• A stable, long-term career path in the property industry
• Professional but down-to-earth team environment
• Work that values your experience and judgement — without the heavy lifting
Why This Role?
Many of our inspectors come from building and trade backgrounds and say the same thing:
"I wish I'd made the move into inspections years earlier."
You still use your construction knowledge every day — but without the physical strain, weather exposure, or long days on the tools.
