Horticulturalist Wanted…Grow Your Career Into Construction!

Love plants but keen to get your hands dirty in a whole new way?

Do you want a great place to work where you have plenty of scope to learn, have fun and work on interesting projects?

Are you a qualified Horticulturalist looking to put your plant knowledge to work while picking up real construction skills?

Then this role could be perfect for you…if you’ve got what it takes!

Sharp Landscaping are on the hunt for an A+ Horticulturalist to join our landscape construction team.

Our business is booming, we’ve got so many projects on the go that we need another pair of hands! You’ll bring the plant expertise – softscaping, turf, soil health – and we’ll teach you the construction side, from retaining walls to decking. The best of both worlds, all on the one job.

Here’s why working with us will be the best career move you ever make:

• Variety, Variety, Variety! – One day you’re planning a planting scheme, the next you’re learning to build a feature stone wall or deck. No boring, repetitive work here!
• Grow Your Skillset – Bring your horticulture expertise and pick up hardscaping and construction skills along the way. A genuine step up from the nursery or maintenance round.
• Awesome Team Culture – Beers, barbeques and lots of fun social events –you’ll need a sense of humour!
• Fair Pay & Career Growth – We pay you what you're worth and offer opportunities to grow as we expand.
• Job Security – We’re a growing company with a strong reputation, and we’re in it for the long haul!

Here’s what we need from you:

• A qualified Horticulturalist (certificate or degree) with solid plant and garden knowledge.
• Ability and experience in leading softscaping projects
• Interpret plans and details
• Good communication skills and client facing experience
• Sound plant knowledge including pest & disease identification
• Attention to detail, high quality finish from start through to project delivery
• An open mind and keenness to learn landscape construction skills – decking, stonework, retaining walls, concreting and more.
• A driver’s license and the ability to get to job sites around Sydney.
• A hard worker with a great attitude who takes pride in their craft.

Having the right stuff is a top priority for us.
