Date posted: January 24, 2026

Closes: Feb 23, 2026


Eclipse Patios & Extensions builds high-quality patios, flyovers and outdoor structures across the Sunshine Coast and North Brisbane.

We're looking for a reliable Trades Assistant / Labourer to support our install team — someone practical, switched-on, and comfortable driving company vehicles and supporting jobs across multiple sites.

This is not short-term labouring. It's a steady role for someone who wants consistent work, responsibility, and the opportunity to grow.

The role

You'll be supporting our installers and operations team with a mix of driving, logistics, and on-site assistance, including:

  • Driving company trucks (manual) to deliver materials to site

  • Collecting materials, hardware, and prepped jobs

  • Assisting with patio and outdoor structure installs

  • Loading and unloading materials

  • General labouring and site support

  • Keeping work sites clean, safe, and organised

Some days you'll be hands-on installing. Other days you'll be running materials or preparing jobs. Flexibility and reliability matter.

What we're looking for (please read carefully)

This role will suit you if you:

  • Hold a MANUAL driver's licence (essential)

  • Have your own transport to/from our Glass House Mountains base and Sunshine Coast sites.

  • Are reliable, punctual, and comfortable with early starts (6:30–7:00am)

  • Are physically fit and happy working outdoors

  • Communicate clearly and reliably (calls, texts, follow-ups)

  • Take safety seriously and follow instructions

Construction / driving experience is helpful, but not essential.
Attitude, work ethic, and reliability matter far more than your CV.

White Card required (or willingness to obtain immediately).

This role is NOT suitable if:

  • You only hold an automatic licence

  • You're looking for an apprenticeship immediately

  • You don't like driving or moving between sites

  • You struggle with early starts or outdoor work

  • You're unreliable with communication

(We're being upfront so no one's time is wasted.)

Why work with Eclipse?

  • $32–$38/hr based on experience

  • Consistent hours (25–35 hrs/week)

  • Well-organised jobs and clear direction

  • Supportive, professional team

  • Pathway to an installer role for the right person over time

  • Weekly pay and steady, ongoing work

A great fit for someone who wants stable work now, and the chance to step up into an installer role if they prove themselves.

Location

  • Based in Glass House Mountains

  • Working across the Sunshine Coast, with occasional North Brisbane jobs

How to apply

Apply via Seek with:

  • A brief cover note (even a few lines is fine)

  • Confirmation that you hold a manual licence

  • Your availability to start

If you're reliable, a good communicator, and keen to work — we want to hear from you.
