See the difference you make every day keeping our trees and streetscapes healthy and protected.

Across Blacktown City, thousands of trees help shade neighbourhoods, cool our streets and bring our parks to life. As a Ground Arborist, you’ll be part of the team that maintains those landscapes - supporting aerial crews, caring for young trees and contributing to the daily work that keeps our city looking its best.

This is hands-on, practical work with purpose. You’ll assist with pruning, removals, planting, chipping, stump grinding and the establishment of new street and park trees. No two days are the same, and every job has a clear outcome you can see.

At Blacktown City Council, good people make great teams – and great teams build outstanding cities. Here, you’ll find stability, support and room to grow your skills, along with:

- a secure,



permanent role with one of Australia’s largest councils
- an entry level salary for this position starts at $1,362.15 per week
- a 38-hour working week
- a Rostered Day Off (RDO) every fortnight
- 12% superannuation and generous leave
- on-the-job training, tickets and progression pathways
- Fitness Passport, social clubs and wellbeing programs.
