From understanding what drives you to supporting you through the interview process, we make every step of your job search clear, personal, and rewarding.
What makes Constructive different from other civil construction recruitment agencies in Australia?
We take a people-first approach to recruitment. With over 20 years’ experience in the civil construction industry, our team genuinely understands the challenges and opportunities across major civil construction projects. We build lasting relationships, not quick placements, connecting you with roles that align with your skills, values, and long-term goals.
How do I register for civil construction job opportunities?
You can register for civil construction job opportunities by submitting your CV through our website, emailing us at info@constructive.au, or contacting one of our consultants directly.
Once we receive your details, we'll review your experience, discuss your career goals, and match you with suitable roles, whether that be with a civil contractor or a consultancy based role.

How does Constructive ensure the right fit for civil construction hires in Australia?
At Constructive, we understand how costly and disruptive a mis-hire can be in the civil construction industry. That’s why we take a hands-on, quality-driven approach to every placement. Our recruitment specialists meet every candidate face-to-face (or virtually) to assess not just their technical skills, but also their communication style, safety mindset, and cultural fit. By combining deep industry knowledge with genuine relationship-building, we help employers make confident hiring decisions that lead to long-term success on site and within the team.
How does Constructive support wellbeing for candidates in FIFO and DIDO civil construction roles?
We understand that FIFO and DIDO work can be rewarding but also demanding — long hours, time away from home, and remote site conditions all impact wellbeing. That’s why we take the time to discuss lifestyle preferences, roster expectations, and personal priorities with every candidate before putting them forward. Our consultants also work closely with employers who value safety, mental health, and sustainable workloads. By matching you with companies that genuinely care about their people, we help you build a fulfilling civil construction career — on and off site.
