Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: Working Drawing Specialist / Draftsman

Compensation range: $2,500 AUD - $3,000 AUD / Monthly

Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 8 AM - 4 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

Who The Client Is: A family-owned custom home builder, we partner with homeowners to create thoughtfully designed homes that reflect their land, lifestyle, and long-term vision. Every project is approached with genuine collaboration, transparent communication, and an unwavering commitment to quality craftsmanship.

Role Overview: This role is responsible for the design and preparation of architectural drawings for residential home builds.

The Working Drawing Specialist ensures drawings are accurate, complete, and compliant at every stage – from concept design through planning approval to working drawings – with minimal errors and rework.

 Compliance & Approvals

-   Understand and apply South Australian building codes, the National Construction Code, and Australian Standards to all drawings.

-   Save and maintain all files within Buildertrend in accordance with company procedures.
-   Ensure drawing registers and documentation are current, auditable, and aligned with company procedures.
-   Identify opportunities to improve design processes, documentation standards, and drawing accuracy.

Attributes

-   Highly organised with exceptional attention to detail.
-   Methodical and thorough approach to design and documentation.
-   Confident, professional, and solutions-focused.
