As a Field Team Member - Landscaping, you’ll play a critical role in the establishment of new and enhanced parks, reserves, wetlands and waterways. You’ll work with a team of planters and landscapers primarily responsible for completing site preparation activities, and installing a range of native plants and advanced trees according to a landscape plan.

We also have opportunities in our Maintenance Division responsible for maintaining our landscapes, with duties including mowing, edging, trimming, mulching, infill planting, pruning, watering, and weed control to achieve a high visual standard and quality, to meet and exceed client expectations.

About you

You love working outdoors, where the idea of four walls and a desk couldn't be further away. You enjoy hard work, and when it's knock-off time, knowing that you've spent the day doing something that matters. Sharing challenges and accomplishments with your teammates is what makes you go. You take pride in your work, but you have a bit of fun along the way. If this is you, we want to hear from you! To be considered for this role you'll also need:

• A good level of fitness and stamina to tackle physical outdoor work in all weather conditions
• Construction Industry White Card
• A driver's license and a reliable vehicle
• Previous planting, landscaping or horticulture experience is preferred but not essential (training will be provided)
• Availability 5 days per week is preferred (Monday to Friday)
• We do work around Gippsland, Melbourne and Victoria, so the ability to travel for work would be preferable (however, not a pre-requisite).

If this sounds like you, we have a well-paid role awaiting you with reliable, consistent hours and career opportunities. Best of all, it's a 3 pm knock-off every day and the work is Monday-Friday, so you have every weekend all to yourself!
