Brooke's Blooms Inala / Forest Lake area, Brisbane QLD 4077 Gardening & Landscaping (Trades & Services)

Full time — 38 hours per week $70,000 – $100,000 per annum plus superannuation, commensurate with skills and experience

ABOUT US

Brooke's Blooms is a Brisbane-based landscaping business servicing residential and commercial clients across the southern and western suburbs of Greater Brisbane, including Inala, Durack, Forest Lake, Richlands, Ellen Grove and surrounding areas. We design, build and establish outdoor spaces that our clients are proud of, and we are looking for a skilled Landscape Gardener to join our team on a permanent full-time basis as our Garden Maintenance Team Leader.

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is a hands‑on position for someone who can take a landscape project from a bare site through to a finished, planted and established garden. You will work from concept plans and client briefs, prepare and shape sites, install the hard and soft elements of the design, and see the job through to handover.

The role suits a tradesperson who takes pride in finish quality and can work independently on site.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

- Set out sites from landscape plans and client briefs, and prepare ground for new gardens — clearing, levelling, grading for fall and drainage, and conditioning or importing soil
- Build the structural elements of a garden, including paved and gravel areas, edging, retaining structures, timber decking and screening, rock and water features
- Select plant stock suited to the site's soil, aspect and climate, and carry out planting of trees,



shrubs, hedging and garden beds, and lay or seed lawn areas
- Install and commission irrigation and garden lighting, apply mulch and fertiliser, and carry out establishment care, pruning, shaping and pest, weed and plant health treatment
- Operate and maintain landscaping plant and equipment, estimate and order materials, liaise with clients and other trades on site, and work in accordance with WHS requirements

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

- A relevant qualification in landscaping or horticulture (Certificate III or higher), or at least 3 years of relevant full‑time work experience as a landscape gardener
- Demonstrated ability to read and work from landscape plans and specifications
- Sound plant knowledge, particularly species suited to South East Queensland conditions
- Practical competence across both hard and soft landscaping
- Confident and safe operation of landscaping plant and equipment
- Valuable communication skills and a professional manner with clients
- Physically fit and able to undertake outdoor manual work in all weather
- Current Australian driver's licence (manual C class minimum)
- Chemical application licence (AQF3) and construction white card advantageous

WHAT WE OFFER

- Permanent full‑time position with full entitlements from day one
- Salary of $70,000 – $100,000 plus superannuation, negotiable based on your skills and experience
- Varied project work rather than repetitive maintenance rounds
- All tools, equipment, PPE and uniforms supplied
- Company vehicle and fuel card
- Ongoing training and genuine scope to progress as the business grows
