SENIOR FOREMANEMPLOYER: Pcrew Pty LtdPOSITION TITLE: Senior Foreman – Industrial and Commercial ConstructionREPORTS TO: Development Manager and Director – Jack MartinLOCATION: South East QueenslandEMPLOYMENT TYPE: Full-Time
POSITION OVERVIEW
The Senior Foreman at Pcrew plays a critical execution role across our industrial and commercial construction projects.
We are a licensed QBCC builder and we build for ourselves.
There is no separation between client and contractor. We are both the developer and the builder. This means:
* Decisions are made fast
* Variations are resolved immediately
* Design adjustments happen in real time
* There is no bureaucratic delay between approval and action
* We build with long-term ownership in mind
You will take full site accountability from establishment through to practical completion across industrial and commercial developments.
You are responsible for:
* Program delivery
* Build quality
* Trade coordination
* Cost discipline on site
* Safety and compliance
* Site culture and standards
Because we hold the assets long term, build quality and execution standards directly impact asset value, leasing strength and refinance outcomes. What you deliver matters beyond handover.
This role requires ownership, urgency and high standards.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Pcrew is a founder-led industrial and commercial property business operating between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
Unlike a traditional contractor, we are not building for an external client. We control the site, the budget and the decision-making process.
You will not be:
* Waiting weeks for client approvals
* Arguing over minor variations
* Re-documenting decisions for layers of consultants
* Forced to build compromised outcomes due to bureaucracy
You will:
* Work directly with the Development Manager and Founder
* Get clear direction and fast decisions
* Deliver high-quality industrial and commercial assets
* Run decisive, well-controlled sites
We offer:
* High autonomy on site
* Strong pipeline of industrial and commercial projects
* Direct access to decision-makers
* Clear accountability and fast progression for high performers
* Opportunity to grow into broader construction leadership as the business scales
