Key responsibilities

  • General building and grounds maintenance
  • Basic plumbing, electrical and handyman repairs
  • Preventative maintenance and safety checks
  • Responding to urgent maintenance issues
  • Liaising with facility managers and staff
  • Ensuring a safe, functional living environment for residents

What we're looking for

  • Ability to work independently with limited supervision
  • Practical problemsolving mindset
  • Comfortable working in regional or remote settings
  • Strong reliability, initiative and adaptability
  • Full Australian working rights
