WE"RE LOOKING FOR ANOTHER MAINTENANCE WEAPON. THIS TIME IN GARDENING.
Handy inside properties? Handy outside properties? We want to talk to you.
THE SPLIT: HOW THIS ROLE ACTUALLY WORKS
Full-time: your week is a genuine 50/50 split. Garden maintenance is priority one, handyman work fills the rest of the week.
OR
Part-time (25+ hours a week): garden maintenance only. Mowing nature strips, trimming back shrubs and trees, pulling weeds.
Either way: you'll be back on the same properties month after month for the garden side of things, so you'll get faster and better at it over time, while full-timers also get variety from the handyman jobs mixed through the week.
About the Company
We're Dispatch Maintenance, a property maintenance company built exclusively for residential property managers across Brisbane. No awkward one-off residential jobs, no chasing strangers for work. Just steady, well-organised work through property management clients who have ongoing need and know how to communicate.
We're growing, and we're looking for our next team member. You'll be joining a small, tight-knit team, not disappearing into a call centre roster. Jared runs the business day to day, so you'll always know exactly who to call and what's expected.
About the Role
· South Brisbane based, working across Greater Brisbane
· Full-time or part-time (25+ hours/week), Monday to Friday. Weekends are yours.
· Immediate start available
· Garden maintenance is monthly recurring per property: mowing nature strips, trimming back trees and shrubs, weeding garden beds
· Full-time roles add general handyman repairs through the week for variety
· Consistent, reliable work every week: no hunting for the next job, no dry patches
Key Responsibilities
Garden maintenance (recurring, roughly monthly per property):
· Mowing nature strips and lawns
· Trimming back trees and shrubs
· Weeding garden beds and general tidy-up
Handyman work (full-time roles, mixed through the week):
· General property maintenance and repairs: doors, locks, hinges, carpentry
· Minor painting and patching: walls, ceilings, touch-ups between tenants
· Basic plumbing fixes: tap washers, cisterns, blocked drains (non-licensed)
· Blind fitting, shelf installation, appliance checks, fence and gate repairs
How We Work
Two things happen on every single job, no exceptions:
· Photos of the work, before and after
· The property gets left cleaner than you found it
That's not a nice-to-have, it's the standard. It's what makes a property manager's life easier and keeps the work coming back to us.
Our Values
We want to win, and we want to have fun doing it. That's the workplace we're building. Honesty wins every time here: if something goes wrong, we want to hear it straight, not find out later and doing the right thing. I understand what's it like to go over the top of a company that never properly recognises my effort, things are different with Dispatch.
Skills and Experience
· Experience in handyman work, garden maintenance, or both. We'll take a strong all-rounder over a narrow specialist.
· A problem solver who's dynamic and adaptable. We're a young business and our processes are still evolving.
· Enjoys getting faster and better at the same recurring garden work each month, but also enjoys mixing it up with handyman jobs through the week if full-time
· Reliable own vehicle and current Australian driver's licence. You'll use your own car and tools day to day, reimbursed at 91c/km (ATO rate) for work-related travel
· Own basic hand tools. We supply the big gear: mowers, ladders, and other larger equipment
· Strong communication: property managers need updates, not excuses
· Reliable, punctual, and professional on site
· No specific licence required for the trade side. Trade background is a bonus, not a must.
What's on Offer
· $33-$37 per hour plus Super, depending on experience
· Fuel/km reimbursement on your own vehicle at the ATO rate (91c/km)
· Big equipment supplied: mowers, ladders, and other larger gear
· Consistent weekly work: no dry patches, no chasing clients for the next job
· Full-time or part-time (25+ hours/week) options
· Join a small, growing team early: direct line to Jared, no corporate BS, just real communication
· A workplace built on wanting to win, having fun, and being straight with each other
· Real room to grow as we scale: good people get recognised and get more responsibility
