Job Description
Work Flexibility: Field-based
Stryker is a global leader in medical technology — and we're driven by one mission: **to make healthcare better**. Our teams design, install, and support world-class Operating Theatres across Australia and New Zealand. Behind every life-changing procedure is a space you helped build.
As a **Site Supervisor**, you'll be the final touchpoint in a hospital's journey to a fully integrated Operating Theatre — the last person the customer sees before we hand over a space that will change lives. You'll manage onsite installations from end to end, working alongside a tight-knit team of five who'll have your back every step of the way.
**This role is less about what you already know, and more about who you are.** We'll teach you the technical side — what we can't teach is the character, drive, and people skills you bring with you.
### What you'll do
* Lead and support contractors on-site, building trust and keeping everyone aligned
* Be the face of Stryker to hospital stakeholders, builders, and clinical teams — building strong relationships that last beyond the project
* Have the difficult conversations when things don't go to plan, and resolve them calmly and professionally
* Conduct site visits and quality inspections to ensure work meets Stryker standards
* Coordinate SWMS, inductions, and onsite safety compliance
* Manage product receipt, stocktakes, and returns
* Collaborate with Project Managers, Engineers, Sales, and Endoscopy teams to ensure successful delivery and go-live
* Oversee Return to Site (RTS) activities, raise Product Issues, and drive corrective actions
* Review drawings, BOMs, and site readiness — spotting risks before they become problems
* Support rack building, prewiring, commissioning, and system integration (full training provided)
* Deliver walkthroughs, handovers, and end-user training
* Look for smarter, better ways of doing things — and speak up when you see them
Who you are
We're looking for someone with the **right mindset and potential** to grow into a great Site Supervisor. That means:
* A natural **relationship-builder** — people trust you quickly, and you enjoy working with all kinds of stakeholders, from tradies to surgeons
* Comfortable **having the hard conversations** — you can hold your ground respectfully when quality, safety, or timelines are at stake
* **Team-oriented** — you contribute to team culture, back your colleagues, and take pride in shared wins
* **Curious and hands-on** — you like being on the tools, on-site, and figuring things out
* **Detail-focused** — you notice the small things others miss
* **Self-motivated** — happy working independently, but never afraid to ask for help
* Willing and available to **travel Monday–Friday across ANZ** (weekends are yours)
What would help (but isn't essential)
* Any hands-on, technical, or trade background (electrical, AV, mechanical, construction, healthcare — or something we haven't thought of)
* Experience reading technical drawings — or an interest in learning
* Coordinating people, contractors, or projects in any setting
* **Recent graduates and career-changers are warmly welcomed** — if you've got the potential, we'll build the rest with you
Why join Stryker?
* Work with a **tight-knit team of five** who genuinely support each other
* **Weekday-only travel** — your weekends stay yours
* **Structured training and mentoring** from day one — no prior Stryker experience needed
* Real career growth — grow into leading larger, more complex projects
* Access to world-class learning, development, and employee benefits
* Be part of a company that values **integrity, impact, and people-first culture**
