Dash Group in Gold Coast
Reliable labour for Gold Coast sites
From high-rise towers along the coastal strip to new housing estates in the northern growth corridor, Gold Coast builders need reliable labour that turns up ready to work. Dash Group's Surfers Paradise office supplies vetted labourers, trades and ticketed operators to builders and subcontractors across the Gold Coast.
Fit-out, joinery and finishing trades are our core strength. We're also set up for structure, logistics and civil work, with formwork crews, dogmen, hoist and manitou operators, and traffic controllers. One consultant manages your account from start to finish, and our in-house team takes care of payroll, super and compliance.
