For Australian tradies
Post work.
Find work.
Get it done.
Subbie Me is a peer-to-peer network of licensed tradespeople. No agency, no labour hire, no middleman taking a cut of your day rate.
One account works both ways
You're not a "contractor" or a "subcontractor" on Subbie Me — you're a tradie. Some weeks you're short a set of hands, other weeks you've got a gap in the diary. Same login, same profile, both sides of the job.
Need a hand
Post the work and review who's interested.
Got a gap
Browse nearby work and put your hand up.
How posting work works
1. Post the work
Trade, skills, site, dates, duration and what you're paying.
2. Review who's keen
See profiles, licence details, experience and availability.
3. Message and lock it in
Chat directly, pick your subbie, mark the job filled.
How finding work works
1. Filter the board
By trade, distance, start date, duration and urgency.
2. Express interest
Short message plus when you're actually free.
3. Get on the tools
Talk it through, get selected, turn up and get it done.
Profiles you can actually judge
Every account is a tradie with a real profile: primary trade, skills, qualified or apprentice, licence details, years on the tools, own tools and vehicle, and where they work from.
- Trust states are shown honestly: pending, verified or needs attention. Nobody is labelled verified unless their record says so.
- Licence numbers stay private — only visible to a poster reviewing that tradie's expression of interest.
- Conversations are job-linked and only visible to the two people in them.
