About Us:

ULTRA Building Co is a main contractor delivering high‑quality projects across a diverse range of sectors, with a strong focus on high‑end luxury apartments and mixed‑use high‑rise developments.

As the first builder in NSW to achieve a 4 Gold Star iCIRT rating and with ISO accreditation, we stand for quality, compliance, and buildings that are made to last.

At Ultra Building Co, quality doesn’t stop at practical completion. Our aftercare team is critical to protecting our reputation, strengthening client relationships, and ensuring every building we deliver meets the standard our name stands for.

We’re looking for an experienced Defects/ Finishes Coordinator with a strong carpentry background who takes pride in fixing things properly – not patching and walking away.

The Opportunity:

Reporting to the Aftercare Manager, you’ll play a key role in managing and closing out defects across our Class 2 residential projects, including PSI inspections, 90‑day defects, DLP, undertakings, and BWRO items.

This is a hands‑on, site‑based role where your construction knowledge, attention to detail, and ability to deal confidently with clients and trades will be valued.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Coordinate and close out defect rectification works across multiple projects
  • Manage subcontractors and hold them accountable to quality and timeframes
  • Get hands‑on with defect repairs where required
  • Maintain accurate defect records in Procore and DLP Manager
  • Liaise with residents, strata managers, and internal project teams
  • Coordinate access to occupied buildings and attend strata meetings when needed
  • Identify and escalate quality, financial, or reputational risks
  • Support continuous improvement through lessons‑learnt reviews

About You:

  • At least 3–5 years’ experience in defects, aftercare, QA, maintenance, or finishes roles
  • Strong carpentry background with solid knowledge of Australian Standards and tolerances
  • Finishes foreman experience highly regarded
  • Organised, detail‑focused, and solutions‑driven
  • Confident communicator with a customer‑focused mindset
  • Proficient in Procore and MS Office
  • NSW Driver’s Licence

Why Ultra Building Co:

  • Clear ownership of the aftercare process
  • A role that values real building experience – not just admin
  • Company vehicle and fuel card
  • Stable pipeline of high‑quality Sydney residential projects
