Apprentice Carpenter – South East & Gippsland
Join a Team That Builds More Than Just Homes
Fairhaven Homes is on the lookout for a motivated Apprentice Carpenter to join our growing construction team across the South East and Gippsland regions.
About Us
Fairhaven is an award-winning home builder with a clear vision: to set a new benchmark for high-quality, affordable homes. Operating across Melbourne’s West, North, Geelong, and Gippsland regions, we specialise in new home construction, house and land packages, and knock down rebuilds.
Our homes are built on foundations of quality, honesty, and affordability — the same standards we’d want for our own families. Backed by industry recognition and a strong customer-first focus, we’re proud of the culture we’ve built and the people who drive it. When you join Fairhaven, you become part of a team that values integrity, hard work, and continuous growth.
The Opportunity
We’re seeking a first-year apprentice (or someone partway through their apprenticeship) to become a key part of our on-site carpentry team. Working in small, skilled crews, you’ll gain hands-on experience in all aspects of carpentry including:
- Framing
- Lock-up
- Fix and Fit-off
If you’re reliable, eager to learn, and ready to get stuck into real-world experience, we want to hear from you. No tools required — just the right attitude.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Assisting qualified carpenters with day-to-day tasks
- Learning and developing your carpentry skills on-site
- Maintaining a safe and tidy work environment
- Setting up and looking after tools and equipment
What We’re Looking For
- Reliability and a strong work ethic
- White Card (we can assist if needed)
- Driver’s licence preferred but not essential
- Pre-apprenticeship course completed (an advantage)
- Good time management and communication skills
- A positive attitude and customer-focused approach
How to Apply
