Ever dreamed of swapping the daily commute for island life? This is your chance to live and work on World Heritage-listed K'gari, surrounded by pristine beaches, incredible wildlife and one of Australia's most unique natural environments.

K'gari Beach Houses is looking for a dependable couple to join us as Resident Managers at our beach house complex in Eurong Second Valley.

This is more than just a job – it's a lifestyle change. We're looking for a couple who are comfortable with remote living, enjoy working independently and are ready to embrace island life.

The roles would particularly suit a couple with complementary skills:

Reception & Housekeeping – ideally someone with hospitality, reception or customer service experience who is organised, comfortable with computers and confident dealing with guests.

Caretaking, Maintenance & Housekeeping – ideally someone hands-on and mechanically minded, with trade, maintenance or caretaking experience highly regarded.

Previous resort management experience is advantageous but isn't essential for the right couple.

What you'll be doing

Between the two roles, your responsibilities will include:

- Reception, bookings, emails and guest check-ins
- Providing friendly and helpful guest service
- Changeover cleaning of beach houses
- Coordinating and supervising our small cleaning team
- Daily property and essential infrastructure checks
- Pool and communal BBQ maintenance
- General repairs and preventative maintenance
- Gardens, grounds and common-area maintenance

Housekeeping is a major part of BOTH roles, so both applicants must be happy to roll up their sleeves and clean. On a typical day, the two managers will work together to clean two houses.

Hours & lifestyle

This is a full-time position working six days per week, with one day off each week. Work generally begins around 8:00am. While a full day can run until 5:00pm,



on many days the majority of scheduled tasks are completed by around 2:30pm. Hours vary depending on occupancy, cleaning, maintenance and guest arrivals, with weekends often involving reduced hours.

As Resident Managers, you'll also be available onsite for genuine after-hours emergencies.

K'gari is an incredible place to live, but living here is very different from holidaying here. You'll need to enjoy being independent and be comfortable with the realities of living in a remote location.

What we're looking for

We're looking for a couple who are:

- Dependable, proactive and able to work independently
- Friendly and confident dealing with guests
- Happy to get their hands dirty
- Physically comfortable with regular housekeeping
- Calm and practical when problems arise
- Comfortable with computers – particularly for the reception role
- Hands-on or mechanically minded – particularly for the caretaker role
- Looking for a genuine lifestyle change

Previous hospitality, housekeeping, accommodation, maintenance, trade or caretaking experience will be highly regarded. Applicants require current driver's licences, Australian working rights and a Police Check. First Aid qualifications and 4WD experience are advantageous but not essential.
