Wilberforce NSW, Australia SLAM Garden and Proprty Maintenance Full time $48,000 - $72,000 per year

About Us

We're a family-run gardening and property care business with over 15 years' experience looking after green spaces across Sydney. Our small team takes pride in reliable, high-quality work and enjoys building long-term relationships with our strata clients.

Most of our work is at strata complexes, where we focus on keeping gardens healthy, lawns neat, and common spaces tidy. This means steady hours, a consistent schedule, and plenty of variety outdoors. Every job is approached with care, professionalism, and a love for creating spaces people enjoy.

About the Role

We're looking for a Gardener Assistant to join our team. This role is hands-on and ideal for someone who enjoys working outdoors, learning new skills, and helping to keep gardens looking their best.

You'll work closely with our gardeners, assisting with a wide range of gardening and general property maintenance tasks.

Your day will include:

  • Travelling to multiple strata sites around Ryde, Parramatta and Sydney surrounds
  • Assisting with gardening tasks such as mowing, hedging, pruning, planting, turf care, and weeding
  • Helping to keep common property areas clean and tidy (vacuuming stairwells with a backpack vac, sweeping, mopping, window cleaning)
  • Operating and maintaining equipment safely (mowers, blowers, hedgers, trimmers)
  • Supporting the team to complete jobs efficiently and to a high standard
  • Taking pride in your work and representing our business in a friendly, professional manner
  • This is a full-time role, Monday to Friday, 7 am – ~3 pm, with the possibility of overtime. Flexible options are available (e.g., working through lunch for school pick-ups), in line with Fair Work allowances.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assist with day-to-day gardening tasks under guidance of the team leader
  • Carry out basic lawn and garden care: mowing, edging, hedging, pruning, mulching, watering
  • Operate garden equipment safely and keep it clean and in good working order
  • Help with common property cleaning: sweeping, vacuuming stairwells, mopping, wiping down glass and surfaces
  • Maintain tidy and safe outdoor areas for residents
  • What You'll Need
  • A valid Australian manual driver's licence
  • Previous gardening, landscaping, or horticulture experience (preferred but not essential)
  • Physically fit and comfortable with outdoor/manual work (e.g., using backpack vacuums, trimming, mowing)
  • Reliable, punctual, and willing to learn
  • A professional, presentable approach as you'll be representing us on strata sites
  • Full working rights in Australia

What We Offer

  • Competitive hourly rate (to be discussed with shortlisted applicants)
  • All tools, equipment, and transport provided
  • Training in safety, equipment, and gardening practices
  • Consistent weekday hours with possible overtime
  • Opportunities to grow your gardening skills in a supportive small-team environment
  • A friendly, family-run business where you're valued, not just a number
  • Our Recruitment Process
  • Reference checks
  • Paid job trial (TFN required before trial)
