Good Pay | Quality Gear | Steady Work | Genuine Respect | No Egos
If you can look at an overgrown garden and already see the finished job, keep reading.
I MOW 4 U is growing, and we're looking for an
experienced gardener
who knows how to do more than simply push a mower around.
You know how to shape a hedge properly, prune with purpose, bring a neglected garden back under control and leave a property looking noticeably better than when you arrived.
We'll give you the right equipment, realistic expectations and the freedom to use your experience. In return, we're looking for someone who takes genuine pride in their work and can be relied upon to maintain a high standard.
No chaos. No egos. No half-jobs.
What you'll be doing
Our work includes:
Garden maintenance and property tidy-ups
Hedging and detailed pruning
Mowing, edging and line trimming
Weed control and spraying
Mulching and garden-bed maintenance
Green-waste removal
Larger garden clean-ups and makeovers
We work across Ballarat for private homeowners, NDIS participants and aged-care clients. Some days you'll work independently and others alongside the crew—but the standard stays the same.
What we're looking for
This position is for someone with
proven, hands-on gardening or landscape-maintenance experience
.
You'll need to:
Be confident using commercial mowing and gardening equipment
Know how to hedge neatly and prune plants correctly
Work efficiently without sacrificing quality
Assess a garden and understand what needs to be done
Work independently without needing every step explained
Communicate respectfully with clients and teammates
Be reliable, honest and willing to take responsibility




Have a current driver's licence and reliable transport to work
Hold, or be willing to obtain, a police check
Plant knowledge, chemical-use accreditation, leadership experience or horticultural qualifications would be highly regarded—but practical ability and the quality of your work matter most.
What's in it for you?
Competitive hourly rate based on your proven skills, efficiency and responsibility
Quality tools, safety equipment and uniforms supplied
Work vehicles supplied during the day
Casual commencement with the chance to move into steady full-time employment
Overtime and additional hours available
A workplace where your experience and ideas are taken seriously
Good banter, team catch-ups and absolutely no room for egos
Genuine opportunities to progress as the business grows
There's room to grow—but no pressure to become something you're not
If you enjoy working on the tools and simply want a stable job with a good crew, that's completely fine.
If you're interested in stepping up, we promote from within and can offer pathways into:
Lead hand and crew leader positions
Quoting and job planning
Client communication
Training and mentoring newer team members
Increased responsibility and earning potential
A little about us
We're a growing, locally owned Ballarat business built on doing what we say we'll do.
We look after people's properties as though they were our own, treat our clients and employees with respect, and take pride in leaving every job properly finished.
We work hard, have a laugh and back one another—but when it comes to quality, we don't cut corners.
