Adelaide Hills, South Australia Adelaide Hills Slashing Full time $60,000 - $80,000 per year
Truck & Tractor Operator – Adelaide Hills
Slashing

Aldgate, SA

Who We Are

We're Adelaide Hills Slashing – a local crew that keeps the Hills tidy, safe, and looking sharp. We tackle the jobs others shy away from: steep blocks, tricky access, overgrown paddocks… you name it, we'll slash it. Our team is down-to-earth, hardworking, and always up for a laugh (usually at ourselves).

The Gig

We're chasing a Truck & Tractor Operator to jump in the driver's seat (and occasionally behind a brushcutter) to help us whip wild blocks into shape. You'll be slashing, mowing, brushcutting, carting gear in the truck, and occasionally jumping in to help with tree work or firewood. Some days you'll be flying solo, others you'll be teaming up on bigger jobs.

If you like working outdoors, don't mind getting your boots dirty, and think tractors are cooler than office chairs, this might be your gig.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Driving tractors, slashers, and trucks like a pro
  • Brushcutting (yes, you'll be getting up close and personal with the overgrowth)
  • Helping with tree work, firewood, and whatever else needs doing
  • Looking after the gear (basic checks & maintenance)
  • Working on steep, sometimes gnarly terrain
  • Being the friendly face of Adelaide Hills Slashing on site
What We're Looking For
  • MR truck licence (a must-have)
  • Tractor experience (slashers, loaders – the works)
  • Brushcutter skills (bonus points if you can tame blackberries without swearing)
  • Chainsaw ticket (or keen to get one)
  • Can-do attitude and decent sense of humour
  • Reliable, safety-conscious, and happy to work outdoors in all sorts of weather
What You'll Get
  • Good pay (based on your experience)
  • Steady work across the beautiful Adelaide Hills
  • Variety – no two days are the same
  • A team that has your back (and takes the mickey in good fun)
  • The satisfaction of taming wild jungle blocks into neat paddocks
How to Apply

If you're ready to swap the office for open paddocks, and you've got the skills to handle tractors, trucks and brushcutters, hit Apply Now on SEEK.

We'll take it from there – no cover letter essays needed, just let us know what you can do.
