Activate Development is rapidly growing and looking for skilled and experienced Commercial & Residential Carpenters to join our team!
We’ve built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality architectural homes, major renovations, and commercial carpentry works across the Sunshine Coast.
Our commitment to transparency, open communication, and unwavering professionalism sets us apart in the industry, and we’re looking for carpenters who align with our values to help us continue raising the bar.
We offer project-based bonuses and incentives and are looking to hire on a casual, permanent, or ABN basis.
IS THIS FOR YOU?
People who thrive at Activate Development and earn the most share these traits:
- Critical thinking and problem-solving: They come to us with recommendations and solutions when challenges arise.
- A coachable mentality: They take feedback onboard, always strive to improve, and hold themselves to high standards both on and off the job.
- Hard-working and dedicated: They understand that every career has tough days, but they push through to hit milestones, always looking out for the team, not just themselves.
