## Description

**​​Looking for Philippines-based candidates**

**Job Role:** AI Automation Specialist

**Compensation range:** $1,500 AUD - $2,500 AUD / Monthly

**Engagement type:** Independent Contractor Agreement / Employer of Record

**Work Schedule:** This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 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:** Our client is a fast-growing Australian commercial construction business — around ten years old, roughly 55 staff, tracking circa $60M in revenue with ~25% year-on-year growth — delivering projects across NSW, metropolitan Victoria and Adelaide. They specialise in industrial, education, government, corporate, retail, aged care / retirement living and childcare projects, and win by being a genuine extension of their clients' teams rather than the cheapest line on the sheet.

**Role Overview:** We are looking for an AI Automation Specialist who can bridge the gap between operations, systems, and AI-driven process improvement. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys identifying inefficiencies, reducing repetitive manual work, and implementing practical automation solutions across multiple business functions including sales, estimating, project delivery, finance, and administration. You will work closely with operational stakeholders to streamline workflows, integrate systems, improve data visibility, and build AI-supported tools that help teams work smarter and faster.

This is the first dedicated AI hire inside the business — a rare opportunity to own what gets built, ship working solutions from week one, and help shape how an entire industry adopts AI, rather than be buried inside an enterprise where nothing lands for 18 months.

**Key Responsibilities:** 

-   Identify repetitive or manual workflows across operations and recommend automation
-   opportunities.
-   Design and implement AI-driven process improvements across sales, estimating, projects, and finance teams.
-   Build automations for:

-   Account reconciliations
-   Tender document preparation
-   Data entry and document management
-   Reporting and project tracking
-   Workflow approvals and notifications

-   Integrate systems and platforms to improve operational visibility and efficiency.
-   Develop AI-assisted tools, prompts, templates, and workflows for internal teams.
-   Work closely with stakeholders to understand operational pain points and deliver scalable solutions.
-   Improve documentation and process standardisation across the business.
-   Support adoption and training of newly implemented systems and automations.
-   Research and recommend emerging AI tools and technologies relevant to the construction industry.

**Required Skills and Qualifications:**

-   Proven experience in AI automation, workflow optimisation, or systems implementation.
-   Experience with automation tools such as Zapier, Make, Power Automate, n8n, or similar.
-   Strong understanding of AI tools and practical business applications.
-   Experience integrating CRMs, project management systems, finance tools, or cloud platforms.
-   Ability to analyse operational workflows and improve business processes.
-   Strong problem-solving and systems-thinking mindset.
-   Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
-   Highly organised with strong documentation skills.

**Preferred Skills and Qualifications:**

-   Experience working within construction, engineering, or trades businesses.
-   Experience automating financial or reconciliation processes.
-   Familiarity with construction platforms such as Procore, Procure Pro, Hammertech, CostX, or Nexvia.
-   HubSpot CRM experience.
-   Hands-on experience with Claude or the Anthropic API.

**Tech Stack You'll Work Across**

Premier (ERP), Procore, Procure Pro, Hammertech, HubSpot (CRM), CostX, Estimate One, Nexvia, SharePoint, and Microsoft 365.

**Work Arrangement & Expectations:**

This is a remote role that will be set up as an independent contractor engagement.

To ensure alignment and transparency, successful candidates will be expected to:

-   Disclose any existing ongoing roles or client work
-   Reflect this engagement on their LinkedIn profile (clearly marked as “Independent Contractor”)
