Job description

Enjoy the Aussie lifestyle—hands-on outdoor work, sunshine and a great crew. Start early, finish early and make the most of your summer afternoons.

Join our Waterloo-based crew in a permanent Labourer role supporting Active’s long-term City of Sydney contract. You’ll work outdoors against the backdrop of Sydney’s harbour, sandstone streets, waterfront parks and established neighbourhoods, helping care for the living urban forest that cools streets, creates shade and makes this iconic city a better place to live, work and visit.

Working alongside an experienced team, you’ll maintain tree bases, install tree guards, assist with concrete and asphalt works, and move fleet vehicles across busy public spaces. You’ll enjoy plenty of variety, with all training provided.

What’s on offer:
  • Permanent, full-time stability on a long-term City of Sydney contract
  • Competitive hourly rate + superannuation, with opportunities for overtime
  • Early starts, early finishes! Monday to Friday, 6:00am–2:30pm - ideal for making the most of Sydney’s summer afternoons.
  • Full PPE and uniform provided so you’re ready to get started from day one
  • Convenient onsite parking in central Waterloo, close to Sydney CBD, Green Square and Alexandria
  • Modern technology and machinery to help you work safely and efficiently
  • A genuine safety-first culture where getting everyone Home Safe every day comes first
  • Ongoing support and training as you grow with the business
  • Access to our Employee Assistance Program, Employee Benefits Program and Employee referral bonus scheme
  • A supportive, hands-on team where your contribution will be visible and valued
What we need from you:
  • MR/HR Truck Licence (essential)
  • White card
  • Willingness to be trained and obtain industry certifications
  • Great communication skills and the ability to work autonomously and as part of a team
Great, but not essential:
  • First aid/CPR
  • Civil Works experience with concrete and/or asphalt (highly regarded)
