As our Grounds & Maintenance Officer, you'll play an important role in the everyday presentation and operation of our Kin Kora community. From maintaining gardens and lawns to completing general repairs and responding to resident maintenance requests, your work will have a direct impact on the place our residents call home.

Reporting to the Park Manager, you'll work as part of the onsite team while having the independence to identify what needs doing and get on with the job.

Guided by our values of Putting People First, Embracing the Challenge, Committing and Following Up, Acting with Purpose and Building Belonging, you'll join a team that takes pride in creating communities where people feel they belong.

What's it like working for Eureka?

No two days are exactly the same.

You might start the morning mowing and maintaining the grounds before moving on to a resident maintenance request, repairing a fixture, pressure cleaning an outdoor area or helping prepare a unit or communal space.

You'll spend plenty of time outdoors and interacting with residents, so we're looking for someone who is approachable, respectful and happy to lend a hand while maintaining professional boundaries.

Most importantly, you'll take pride in your work and understand that the small things matter when you're helping maintain someone's home.

Is this role right for you?

We're looking for someone practical, reliable and comfortable getting stuck in.

• A proactive and independent approach, with the ability to identify maintenance needs, prioritise your workload and follow tasks through to completion.
• A friendly and respectful communication style, with the ability to work comfortably around residents, colleagues, contractors and suppliers.

You’ll also need to be comfortable working outdoors in varying weather conditions and have a strong commitment to safety, presentation and resident satisfaction.
