Roading Foreman | Civil Construction (Perm)
Our client is a well-regarded civil contractor with a solid reputation across Canterbury and a healthy pipeline of roading work ahead of them. They've built that reputation on doing the job properly the first time, and a big part of that comes down to the people running their sites.
They're now looking for an experienced Roading Foreman to take charge of a crew. This is a hands-on leadership role covering pavement construction, asphalt, kerb and channel, drainage and general civil works, across a mix of council and private contracts. You'll be the one setting the pace on site, making the calls when conditions change, and making sure the work goes in to spec and on programme.
