Lead Roofer - Custom Tiny Homes (Roofing & Cladding)

Yatala | Permanent full-time | Indoor workshop | High salary for the right person

We design and build custom tiny homes on wheels from our workshop in Yatala. As we continue to grow, we’re bringing our roofing work in-house and looking for an experienced Lead Roofer to take ownership of roofing and external cladding across our tiny homes, decks and pergolas.

This is a hands-on role suited to someone who takes pride in high-quality workmanship, can work independently and enjoys being trusted to manage their own day.

You’ll work closely with our founders and Construction Lead, supported by a dedicated labourer and a relaxed, hardworking team.

Why Join Us?

• High salary for the right experience

• Permanent full-time employment

• Indoor work in our Yatala workshop

• Flexible hours and freedom to organise your day

• Consistent pipeline of work

• No quoting, chasing jobs or managing your own invoices

• Work directly with the founders

• Relaxed, down-to-earth team environment

• Opportunity to help establish and lead our in-house roofing function

About the Role

You’ll be responsible for completing roofing and external cladding work across our projects, including:

• Installing Colorbond roofing and wall cladding

• Working across a variety of profiles and custom tiny home designs

• Installing flashings, cappings, trims and associated roof details

• Completing waterproofing and weatherproofing details

• Reading plans and interpreting design requirements

• Planning your work and coordinating materials

• Working with a dedicated labourer

• Communicating with the Construction Lead regarding timing, priorities and site requirements

• Maintaining a clean, organised and safe work area

• Completing quality checks throughout each project

• Taking ownership of producing neat, durable and watertight finishes

This is not repetitive large-scale roofing. Every tiny home is different, so the role requires someone who can think through details, solve problems and deliver a high standard of finish.

What We’re Looking For

You’ll need:

• Strong experience in metal roofing and roof plumbing

• Experience working with Colorbond roofing and wall cladding

• The ability to work independently and manage your own workflow

• Confidence reading plans and working through custom details

• High attention to detail

• Pride in your workmanship

• Strong communication and reliability

• A safety-first approach

• The ability to work well with a small team and take feedback

Experience with tiny homes, modular buildings or custom residential construction will be highly regarded, but the most important thing is proven roofing ability and a commitment to quality.

The Person We’re Looking For

You may currently be subcontracting, working in residential roofing or looking for a more stable long-term role.

You’ll suit this position if you want:

• Consistent work

• Strong pay

• More control over your schedule

• A good team around you

• Less administration and business management

• The opportunity to take ownership of an important part of the company
