Employer guide

Write a construction job brief that attracts relevant applicants.

A clear description of the project and the work helps applicants assess whether an opening fits their experience.

Start with the project context

State whether the work is residential, commercial, industrial or infrastructure. Include the project location and, where useful, the stage of delivery. These details help professionals recognise relevant experience quickly.

Separate essential from preferred experience

List the technical skills, qualifications and years of experience that are genuinely needed. Distinguish these from preferences, such as a particular project segment or software tool.

Describe the day-to-day scope

Explain what the person will own, who they will work with, and what decisions they can make. For planning, quantity surveying, QA/QC, MEP and site roles, practical responsibilities are often more informative than a broad title.

Make the application useful

Provide a realistic location, work arrangement and hiring process. If compensation can be disclosed, state it clearly. Review the brief with the project team before publishing so requirements match the actual work.
