From the roof to
the future of work.
Jay Fox started where a lot of Australians start, on the tools. One man. One ladder. One roof at a time. He never stopped climbing.
Today Fox Metal Roofing puts on more than 45 roofs a month across Perth. Under FMR Building & Construction, his crews take on the work most companies won't touch: live refineries, active mine sites, high-voltage substations, even millimetre-accurate work on a deep-space antenna for the European Space Agency.
The bigger his companies grew, the harder he hit the same wall every builder hits: you can have the contracts, the gear and the standards, and still not find a crew. Dozens of calls to fill a single shift. So he built the fix himself.
NERA Jobs is the on-demand workforce marketplace he wished he'd had, where verified, work-ready people and the businesses that need them find each other in minutes, not days. He isn't a Silicon Valley founder who read about the problem in a report. He's the bloke who lived it.
