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.

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,

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
