High-End Garden Maintenance

This is not a mow, blow and go maintenance job.

What this role actually is We’re

Nest Landscape Design, Construction & Maintenance.

We design, build and maintain high-end residential landscapes across the Gold Coast.

Our maintenance team looks after established gardens that have been carefully designed, built and planted — and our job is to make sure they keep getting better.

We’re looking for an experienced

Garden Maintenance

team member who understands that great garden maintenance is about a lot more than mowing lawns and trimming hedges.

You’ll be trusted to understand the gardens you work in, notice what they need and take ownership of the result.

What you’ll really be doing You’ll:

Maintain high-end residential gardens to an exceptional standard

Prune properly — understanding the plant, its form and how it should develop, rather than just cutting everything back

Keep lawns sharp through mowing, edging, fertilising and seasonal care





Identify weeds, pests, diseases and plant health issues

before they become bigger problems

Plant, mulch, improve soils and carry out general horticultural work

Check irrigation and identify issues when something isn’t working as it should

Notice when a garden could be better and make recommendations rather than simply walking past it

Look after your tools, equipment and vehicle like they’re your own

Leave every property clean, considered and looking better than when you arrived

Communicate confidently and professionally with our clients

Keep site notes, photos and job information up to date

Most importantly, you’ll

care about the finished result .

If something looks wrong, you notice it.

If a plant is struggling, you want to know why.

If something needs doing, you don’t wait for someone else to point it out.

What this role is not

Not basic lawn mowing

Not a race to get through as many properties as possible

Not a role where someone will stand beside you telling you what to do all day

Not a job for someone who thinks “good enough” is good enough

We work on beautiful properties and our clients expect a high standard.

Who fits here You’ll do well if:

You genuinely know and enjoy plants and gardens





You have experience in

garden maintenance, landscaping or horticulture

You know how to prune properly

You have strong plant identification and horticultural knowledge

You notice the small details

You work efficiently without sacrificing quality

You’re reliable, punctual and organised

You’re comfortable working independently

You’re professional around clients and their homes

You take pride in your tools, vehicle and work area

You don’t need someone constantly checking your work

A

Certificate III in Horticulture

is highly regarded, but strong hands‑on experience and horticultural knowledge matter just as much.

A current driver’s licence is essential, with the ability to drive a manual preferred.

ACDC chemical accreditation

is also highly regarded.

Why this is a valuable place to work

We work 4 day weeks - Monday to Thursday

You’ll maintain genuinely beautiful, high-end gardens

You’re trusted to take ownership of your work

You’re part of a landscape company that

designs, builds and maintains

its projects

You work with capable people who care about what they produce

Good work gets noticed

Working with a family owned and operated business

No corporate layers or politics

Opportunity to grow as our maintenance division grows

We take our landscapes seriously, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously.
