Answer: no the planning supervisor draws up the plans, and supervises others to draw up plans, and meets with homebuyers and such to make sure the plans are accurate and everything is good before building starts. the project supervisor is in charge of that particular project or projects and oversees the construction from the ground being cleared to the final walkthrough to make sure it is all to plan, nothing is left out, everything is done in the right order and well, passes inspections, and stays on schedule.

Aluminium industry in Tasmania (smelter), bauxite mine at Weipa on Cape York, alumina refinery and smelter at Gladstone in Central Queensland with associated coal fired power station - three or more large turbines. Many years ago I was told the Gladstone smelter was to duplicate its pot line. That would have been done by now.

Townsville, Qld. Copper refinery for copper from Mt. Isa well to the west. In Western Australia iron mining on a large scale.
Massive boom going on in coal mining in Central Queensland but if you take a job there bring your own house. Most of the coal is for metallurgical use, so plenty of washing plants.

Question: How to be a better Construction Site Supervisor? I have been hired on at the supervisor position, I'm training for now. I have been a manager in the sales field for several years and Sergeant in the Marine Corp. I don't have a lot of experience in the pipe laying business. They guys that I work for all know this. I'm not a fighter hardly a yeller. In the Marine Corp I had earned everything I got and it was easy to lead my men, but this is a different situation. Some of the guys that will be working for me have a problem with my age and my inexperience and have told me that they have a problem with me. What can I do to not let the situation get out of control and still get work done? This is a great opportunity for me and a great company. If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thank You
Answer: First of all. IT's worse than high school. Gossip, gossip, gossip. Start by figuring out who doesn't have a problem. Make sure you develop a relationship. Just a chit-chat every other day... for a few minutes. It doesn't matter that a few guys don't like you. You can get rid of them eventually. Get a feel for the general attitude on site. Try to talk to someone new every day and ask them how it's going. Being on the inside I have known the few disgruntled guys who have everything against the new guy. They don't last long. We don't give a sh#t. It's just them and their attitude. And, it runs them off site. If you find there are some problems bring solutions, but, only if you know for sure you can solve them. Otherwise there will be talk, talk, talk. Be fair about OT and anything else. Always remember what you say and write it down for future reference. You need to be there for the guys like mommy and daddy. All the foremens talk about you. All the workers. Get used to it. Act like you mean business and if someone has a problem with your inexperience at least you have the maturity the position requires. Don't be afraid to remind them of that. Sometimes they just need a foot in their mouth to shut up. And, that's all it will take. Other times a way to get rid of the trouble makers will come...good luck hope it helps.
Question: As a supervisor,what team work competencies are needed for a person to work at a building construction company
Answer: i've worked on a few construction sites and from what i've seen the supervisor needs to give respect to his workers. the supervisor needs to realize that he is the leader and needs to push people in the direction that they need to go, but as a supervisor he needs to realize that some of the workers have been doing the job for a long time and know a lot. make sure to always ask the seasoned workers their opinion they like that. also don't take crap from the young guys that don't know anything. keep on them and let them know that you're their boss.
