Build Exceptional Homes. Lead Exceptional Projects.

Kube Constructions is a Melbourne-based builder specialising in premium architectural homes, renovations and bespoke residential projects.

We're looking for an experienced and motivated Leading Hand Carpenter who takes pride in quality workmanship, leads from the front, and enjoys being part of a professional team delivering high-end residential projects.

This is more than a carpentry role. You'll play a key part in driving site performance, coordinating trades, maintaining quality standards and ensuring projects continue to move forward every day.


About the Role

As a Leading Hand, you'll be responsible for the day-to-day execution of works on site, including:

  • Coordinating daily site activities and short-term sequencing

  • Ensuring trades have what they need to perform efficiently

  • Monitoring workmanship and maintaining high quality standards

  • Reading and interpreting plans and construction details

  • Driving accountability and maintaining momentum across the project

  • Maintaining site presentation, organisation and safety

  • Identifying issues early and escalating where required

  • Leading and mentoring carpenters and apprentices

  • Working closely with the Construction Coordinator and Head of Construction


What We're Looking For

  • Qualified Carpenter (Certificate III Carpentry)

  • Minimum 5 years industry experience

  • Previous Leading Hand or Site Leadership experience preferred

  • Strong understanding of residential construction methods

  • Ability to coordinate trades and manage site activities

  • Strong communication and leadership skills

  • Highly organised and proactive

  • Solutions-focused with a calm approach under pressure

  • Strong attention to detail and pride in workmanship

  • White Card

  • Current Driver's Licence

  • Australian citizenship required


The Type of Person Who Thrives at Kube

You:

  • Take ownership rather than wait to be told what to do

  • Care about quality and getting the details right

  • Lead by example

  • Are organised and reliable

  • Enjoy solving problems

  • Hold yourself and others accountable

  • Communicate professionally with clients, trades and consultants

  • Want to be part of a team that genuinely cares about delivering exceptional projects


What We Offer

  • Competitive salary package

  • Vehicle allowance (or company vehicle for the right candidate)

  • Long-term pipeline of premium residential projects

  • Supportive and professional team environment

  • Clear career progression opportunities

  • Ongoing training and development

  • Strong systems and operational support

  • The opportunity to work on some of Melbourne's finest residential projects
