About the role

We’re looking for a highly motivated Building Surveyor to join our busy dynamic team. You’ll be required to assess applications for Construction Certificates, Complying Development Certificates, Development Applications and other associated applications as well carry out progress inspections related to those approvals. You’ll be able to live and work in the Clarence Valley where we enjoy the finer things in life like catching a fish or a wave before work and river views on your daily commute; or perhaps you’d like to ride your horse on a hobby farm instead. We have a work/life balance that is exactly as it should be – balanced.

If you’re a professional Building Surveyor who wants to make the built environment a safe and healthy place to occupy and enjoy leisure time as much as office/on-site time, Clarence Valley Council wants to hear from you.

As a Building Surveyor you will:

  • Assess applications for Construction Certificates, Complying Development Certificates, Development Applications and other associated applications
  • Carry out progress inspections of approved works
  • Provide professional technical advice to internal and external customers on building and development issues
