Home & Garden Maintenance Professional

Gympie Queensland, Australia Suncare Community Services Ltd Full time $40,000 - $60,000 per year

Why you will love Working Here

Getting older can mean giving up a lot, your home, your routine, your sense of independence. We don't think it should.

With more than 800 team members and 200 volunteers, we're here to help people keep living the life they love, with reliable in-home and community care, a local team who knows the neighbourhood, and the kind of support that always has time for a cuppa and a chat.

And we look after our team the same way. We offer real support, meaningful recognition, and rewards that reflect the difference you make every day.

Here's what you can expect:

  • Clear, supported career pathways and training to help you grow
  • Full induction and buddy shifts
  • Uniforms and PPE
  • Not-for-profit salary packaging ($15,900 per annum)
  • Flexible and hybrid working options (where applicable)
  • Employee referral reward program - because good people know good people
  • Fitness Passport - access to gyms and wellness facilities
  • Employee Assistance Program - confidential support when you need it

What you will be doing

As part of our Home & Garden Services team, you'll be the reason someone's day feels a little more doable. Whether it's mowing the lawn, trimming hedges, or clearing gutters, you'll help keep homes safe and comfortable.

You'll head out with a teammate in a Suncare vehicle (trailer included), visiting homes in and around Gympie with everything you need on board. Expect tasks like mowing, edging, brush cutting, pruning, weeding, pressure washing, window and gutter cleaning, and reaching those tricky spots like ceiling fans and high cupboards.

And while you're out there, you'll keep our gear clean, safe, and ready for the next job, because the little things make a big difference.

The role is available as Casual employment, and hours are rostered within Monday to Friday 7am to 3.30pm.

You will Thrive in this role if you

  • Love getting to know people and building real, lasting connections
  • Show up with compassion, reliability, and respect - every time
  • Genuinely care about helping older Australians live life the way they choose
  • Have experience in a home and garden maintenance role in aged care, disability support, or the community, qualifications are great, but heart, know-how and a willingness to learn matter just as much
  • Know how to plan your day, communicate clearly, and keep things running smoothly
  • Are adaptable, happy working solo or teaming up, depending on the day
  • Are confident using mobile tech to stay connected and get the job done
  • Are comfortable driving with a trailer and know how to handle it safely and smoothly
  • Hold a current Australian Driver's Licence
  • Have (or are happy to get) First Aid, CPR, and a National Criminal History Check

Belonging Starts Here

We believe real care starts with real belonging. That means creating a workplace where everyone - no matter their background, culture, or story - feels seen, respected, and safe to be themselves.

We welcome applications from First Nations people, the LGBTIQA+ community, people with disabilities, and those from culturally diverse backgrounds. Your story matters here.
