Grounds Maintenance Officer - Airside Safety Coordinator
Aeria Management Group is seeking a Grounds Maintenance Officer and Airside Safety Coordinator to join its operational team across Bankstown and Camden Airports.
This role sits inside an active aerodrome setting, where grounds presentation and airside safety are inseparable. Clean edges, consistent finish, controlled vegetation height and disciplined mowing patterns directly support runway visibility, airfield compliance and operational confidence.
A one-percenter approach is valued: attention to detail, pride in presentation, and a disciplined, methodical way of working. This is a role for someone who enjoys working to defined airfield standards and taking ownership of how the airside environment presents every day.
This is a hands-on, operational role (not supervisory), combining grounds maintenance with airside safety responsibilities in a structured, safety-critical aviation setting.
Key responsibilities:
Deliver daily grounds maintenance across airside areas at Bankstown and Camden Airports
Maintain runways, taxiways, aprons, pavements, fencing and associated airfield infrastructure




Undertake airfield line marking and refresh painted surface markings to defined aerodrome standards
Operate and maintain airside plant and equipment (mowers, tractors, bobcats, trucks, power tools)
Complete inspections, checklists and reports in line with aerodrome and aviation safety standards
Undertake Airside Reporting Officer (ARO) and Works Safety Officer (WSO) duties in a relief or ad-hoc capacity
Identify hazards, escalated issues promptly, and operate within the Aviation Safety Management System (SMS) and WHS frameworks
About you:
You bring a practical, safety-first mindset suited to working inside an aerodrome environment:
Strong pride in presentation, finish and consistency
Experience in turf, grounds, facilities or similar operational environments; line marking experience desirable
Comfort working to procedures, checklists and defined airfield standards
A calm, safety-focused and reliable approach to day-to-day execution within a safety-critical aviation setting
Airport or aviation experience is advantageous but not essential.
