Why work with Shadforth?

 

At Shadforth, we’re all about building sustainable communities through great client relationships, and we recognise that this starts with our people. You’ll be welcomed into our close-knit community with open arms and feel empowered to deliver quality workmanship across all types of civil projects.

You’ll never have to travel far to find a career that’s made for you. Our work sites are locally based in Southeast Queensland and Northern New South Wales, so you won’t have to engage in any fly in/fly out (FIFO) contracts, if you don’t want to. We offer ongoing, steady work that enables a healthy work/life balance, so you can go home each night and spend more time doing what you love.

We prioritise upskilling our people which will ensure you have clear pathway to grow your career with Shadforth. This is supported by our leaders and executive team who readily make themselves available and accessible to all employees to talk to them, listen to their feedback with an open mind, and solve issues quickly.
