Garden Maintenance Technician (North brisbane & surrounding areas)

Garden Maintenance Technician – Brisbane Northside

Yardspace runs garden maintenance across Brisbane’s northside, including Wavell Heights, Chermside, Aspley, Sandgate and Brighton.

We look after homes, body corporates and a caravan park on a set run, to a set standard, every visit. We need one more experienced technician to join that run from early September.

The job

You’ll complete two to four garden maintenance jobs a day alongside another crew member. Every job has a time allowance the client has already paid for. Your job is to hit it, not beat it.

Your work will include:

• Mowing and edging
• Hedging and pruning
• Maintaining garden beds
• Weed control
• Green waste removal
• General garden and grounds maintenance
• Reporting site issues to the office

The working day starts at our depot at 6:30 am. Every job is clocked through our phone app from day one, so you’ll need to be comfortable using a phone to track time and job progress.

What we’re looking for

You’ll need at least one year of hands-on garden maintenance experience. Landscaping, greenskeeping or greenkeeping experience is also favourable, particularly if you’re confident using commercial outdoor power equipment.

You’ll need:

• At least one year’s experience in garden maintenance
• Landscaping experience is favourable
• Greenskeeping or greenkeeping experience is favourable
• Experience using commercial mowing, edging and hedging equipment
• A current manual driver’s licence
• Your own reliable transport to the depot
• A current White Card
• Chemical accreditation is favourable but not essential
• The ability to work outdoors and complete physical tasks
• Good communication and attention to detail
• The reliability to turn up and finish the job list
• The awareness to report site issues to the office

What we offer

This is a casual position to start, paid weekly, with a review after three months and a genuine pathway to full-time employment. We’d rather be clear about that than dress it up.

You’ll receive:

• Weekly pay
• A three-month performance review
• A genuine pathway to full-time employment
• Well-maintained tools and equipment
• A paid trial shift on a real job
• A consistent northside maintenance run
• Support from a small, straightforward crew

The paid trial shift lets us both find out whether the role is the right fit. We’re a small crew, and you’ll know everyone by Wednesday.
