About Us

HEH Civil is a family-owned Queensland civil contractor delivering road, airport, water, sewer, bridge, drainage and earthworks projects for government and private clients. We are large enough to deliver significant infrastructure, but small enough for site leaders to be heard and have direct access to decision-makers. With offices in Cairns, Mareeba and Brisbane and a growing South East Queensland pipeline, we hire for the long term and value practical leadership, open communication and people who take pride in doing the job properly.

How to apply

If you are an experienced Site Supervisor who takes ownership of safe, productive and well-organised civil works, apply with your resume and a short summary of the projects and crews you have supervised. Applicants must have full working rights in Australia. HEH Civil welcomes applications from people of all backgrounds, including women and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
