Birubi is looking for a Ground Maintenance Worker to join our Municipal and Grounds Maintenance team, servicing Aboriginal Communities at Lakeview and Davenport. Working within the Port August area, this is a hands-on role where you'll be on the tools alongside your crew while ensuring high-quality service delivery and safe worksite practices. Starting at 3 days per week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday), the role has strong potential to grow to full-time as contract demands increase.

- When appropriate, identify, report, on-site hazards and incidents promptly and accurately.
- Support the Team Leader to plan and allocate daily work tasks to team members, ensuring efficient and effective contract delivery.
- Maintain clear and professional communication with the Ground Maintenance Team to meet site expectations and reporting requirements.




- Demonstrate strong reading and writing literacy to assist with site documentation, reports, and administrative requirements.

About you:

- Experience within grounds maintenance, municipal services, or a related field would be advantageous.
- Demonstrated ability to work within a fast-paced outdoor workplace.
- Solid understanding of workplace health and safety obligations, including the ability to engage with pre-starts, toolbox meetings, and hazard/incident reporting.
- Strong reading and writing literacy to support site documentation, compliance records, and operational reports.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the confidence to liaise professionally with clients, site managers, and team members.
- Hands-on experience operating grounds maintenance equipment such as ride-on mowers, handheld tools, and waste collection machinery.
- Current and valid driver's license is preferred, with the ability to travel between community sites at Lakeview and Davenport as required.

The successful candidate must be able to successfully complete medical, police, and working with children checks.
