Casual position with a clear pathway to permanent full-time employment for the right person.

Metafix Pty Ltd is looking for a reliable team member to join our fencing and retaining wall crew.

We specialise in Colorbond fencing, timber fencing, concrete sleeper retaining walls and composite retaining walls for residential and commercial clients across South East Queensland.

We’re looking for someone who is dependable, takes pride in their work and wants to be part of a crew that values quality, reliability and accountability.

Why Join Metafix?

  • $40-$45 per hour plus super for the right applicant
  • 9-day fortnight with every second Friday off
  • No weekend work
  • Consistent pipeline of work
  • Small, close-knit team
  • Variety of residential and commercial projects
  • Opportunity to develop new skills and progress

We believe good people work best when they have time to enjoy life outside of work. That’s why we operate a 9-day fortnight, giving every team member a long weekend every second week.

About the Role

You will be working alongside an experienced crew assisting with:

  • Construction of Colorbond and timber fencing
  • Construction of concrete sleeper and composite retaining walls
  • Site preparation and clean-up
  • Loading and unloading materials
  • Operating hand and power tools
  • General labouring duties

This role will commence on a casual basis. For the right person, we are looking to build a long-term team member and offer permanent full-time employment once they have demonstrated the reliability, work ethic and attitude we’re looking for.

This position will suit someone who enjoys physical outdoor work, likes seeing tangible results at the end of each day and takes satisfaction in doing a job properly.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for someone who:

  • Turns up on time and ready to work
  • Takes pride in producing quality work
  • Works at a steady, productive pace
  • Has a strong work ethic and positive attitude
  • Can follow instructions and work safely
  • Works well within a team environment
  • Takes responsibility for their work and actions
  • Is physically fit and capable of manual labour

Experience in fencing, retaining walls, landscaping or construction is highly regarded, however reliability, work ethic and attitude are just as important as experience.

Requirements

  • Current White Card (or willing to obtain)
  • Current manual driver’s licence
  • Australian working rights
  • Ability to work outdoors in varying weather conditions

The following are highly regarded:

  • Fencing experience
  • Retaining wall experience
  • Excavator experience

Our Expectations

We take pride in quality workmanship and expect jobs to be completed to a high standard. Cutting corners is not how we operate.

We have a small team and every crew member plays an important role. We’re looking for someone who is reliable, turns up ready to work each day, maintains a good pace on site and takes responsibility for the quality of their work.

If you’re looking for a role where your effort is valued and you’re willing to contribute to a productive, professional crew, we’d like to hear from you.

Successful applicants may be asked to complete a paid trial period before being offered a permanent position.
