2,941 licensed building companies across South East Queensland — filtered from the official QBCC Licensed Contractors Register (open data, updated weekly; retrieved 29 July 2026). This is the prospecting engine behind my outreach: real companies, real revenue bands, zero guesswork. It shows how I turn a raw public dataset into a working business-development system.

Who made the cut — and why

<aside> 💡

Why Category 1–2 is the sweet spot: Category 1 = $800k–$3M annual revenue, Category 2 = $3M–$12M (per the QBCC Maximum Revenue page). These builders are established enough to run multiple concurrent projects and genuinely feel coordination pain — but small enough to have no dedicated coordinator on staff. Exactly who a Construction Project Coordinator serves best.

How I work the list

  1. Pick 10 companies in the preferred region. Check each on the free public QBCC licence search to confirm the licence is current.
  2. Visit their website and socials — count active projects, look for Procore/Buildertrend mentions, note any "we're hiring" posts. A builder advertising for a Contract Administrator is publicly telling you where it hurts.
  3. Check Seek and LinkedIn for their job ads. If they're hiring coordination roles, pitch the audit instead: same outcome, offshore cost base.
  4. Send the process audit as the opener — paid, or as a targeted free sample for dream clients. Never pitch the retainer cold.
