Multiskilled Plant Operator

Make your mark at BildGroup

At BildGroup, we believe in helping you thrive, in your career, your passions, and your purpose. Here, you'll find a workplace that inspires you to bring your best, supports your journey every step of the way, and genuinely cares about your success.

The role and what we are looking for

We're looking for a Multiskilled Plant Operator to join our Urban Civil Construction team permanently based in Mackay, QLD. You'll be operating a range of plant across a mix of civil infrastructure and sports field construction works - earthworks, drainage, pavements, and landscaping - as part of a close-knit crew that gets things done and takes real pride in the work they deliver.

This is not a single-machine role. We need someone who can jump on whatever is needed that day - excavator, grader, roller, skid steer - without making it a big deal. If the machine needs an operator and you hold the ticket, you get on it. That flexibility is what makes this team work, and it is what we are looking for in the person who joins it.

What we're looking for:

• Multiple current plant tickets - excavator, grader, roller, skid steer, or a combination of these
• Proven experience operating plant on civil construction sites - urban civil, earthworks, drainage, sports field, or landscaping works all relevant
• A genuinely multiskilled mindset - comfortable moving between machines as the day and project demands change
• Strong commitment to safety - you operate within safe work practices without needing to be reminded
• Reliable and consistent - the team is small and everyone counts
• Current White Card (Construction Induction) - must be held prior to start
• Valid drivers licence - essential for getting between sites across the Mackay region
• Locally based in Mackay or genuinely ready to make the permanent move

Bonus points for:

• Sports field or civil construction experience - directly relevant to our project scope
• Traffic management accreditation
• HR or MR licence
• First Aid current
