Job description

Not all lawns are created equal. Some are simply… next level.

We’re looking for a passionate Greenkeeper | Turf Technician to join our Yards' Family: someone who gets real satisfaction in obtaining the best turf in the street to join our award-winning team.

You’ll take ownership of your sites and produce work you’re proud to put your name to.

• Professional turf care.
• Weed, pest & disease control.
• Minor irrigation troubleshooting.

What We're Looking For

• Genuine passion for premium turf care: the drive to create the best lawn in the street for our clients.
• Experience in turf maintenance (essential)
• Qualification in Greenkeeping, Sports Turf Management, or similar (ideal).
• Experience in lawn renovations.
• Strong attention to detail and a positive, can-do attitude.
• Valid Australian Driver's Licence and unrestricted working rights in Australia.
