Work that matters, done with people who care.

Join our Greenspace Services team as a trade-qualified Gardener and help maintain the parks, gardens and public spaces that residents use every day. You work in a crew responsible for formal gardens, landscaped CBD areas, community hubs and other high-profile locations where presentation, safety and consistency are important.

Your day includes mowing and edging lawns, maintaining garden beds, trimming and organising hedges, checking irrigation systems and monitoring plant health. You plant trees and shrubs, apply mulch, control weeds, undertake minor landscaping works and operate equipment such as mowers, edgers and whipper snippers. You identify hazards, keep sites clean and safe, support apprentices and help ensure work is completed to a high horticultural standard.

The work is visible and practical. Families, visitors and local residents use these spaces every day, and the quality of your work helps keep them attractive, protected and enjoyable.

This role suits someone who enjoys outdoor work, leads by example and takes pride in maintaining high-quality public spaces.
