About the role

This is a hands-on outdoor role with a robust focus on grounds maintenance, including mowing, edging, general landscape maintenance and operating grounds equipment.

We are particularly interested in candidates who have previous experience in grounds maintenance, parks and gardens, landscaping, turf maintenance or a similar outdoor setting.

General grounds, garden and landscape maintenance
Undertaking burial activities including grave preparation, digging and final presentation
Preparing burial and funeral service areas
Identifying cemetery sections and grave locations
Assisting with funeral services as required

Maintaining a strong focus on health,



safety and presentation standards

We are looking for someone who:
Has previous grounds maintenance, mowing, landscaping, parks and gardens or similar experience
Is confident operating ride-on mowers, whipper snippers, blowers and other grounds maintenance equipment
Enjoys practical, hands-on outdoor work
Has a solid work ethic and takes pride in maintaining grounds to a high standard
