Case Study.
Year 1
Got Open Class Site Supervisor approved.
Carlos had nine years on Brisbane commercial sites running concrete and structure packages for a Tier 2 builder. The business needed an approved Site Supervisor on the licence to take on more high-rise work. He worked through the Open Class pathway on nights and weekends, lodged with QBCC, and was approved inside the year.
Year 2
Promoted to Senior Site Supervisor on high-rise.
With the approval through, Carlos was promoted to Senior Site Supervisor on a twenty-two-storey residential tower in Newstead — day-to-day program and safety across around eighty trades. His package lifted around $35K.
Year 3
Stepped into Construction Manager.
By year three Carlos was Construction Manager across two concurrent commercial projects worth a combined $90M, with three site supervisors reporting into him. The supervisor approval was the credential that unlocked every step that came after.
