Maintenance & Grounds Person

Part Time | 3 Days Per Week

Kenderdine Park Hospital & Home is looking for a reliable and personable Maintenance & Grounds Person to join our team on a part-time basis (3 days per week, around 6 hours per day).

We're seeking someone who takes genuine pride in their work and enjoys creating safe, tidy, and attractive spaces for our residents, families, and staff. This is a hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys variety. One day you may be mowing lawns and freshening up paintwork, the next you may be assembling furniture, fixing a gate, addressing a maintenance issue, or helping solve an unexpected problem. No two weeks are exactly the same.

Flexible weekday hours make this an excellent opportunity for someone seeking meaningful part-time work. It may particularly suit a semi-retired tradesperson, handyman, groundskeeper, or maintenance professional who still enjoys keeping busy and takes pride in a job well done.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintaining attractive, safe, and hazard-free lawns, gardens, and outdoor spaces
• Painting, patching, repairing, and carrying out general maintenance tasks
• Routine property upkeep and preventative maintenance
• Keeping equipment, storage areas, and workspaces clean, organised, and well maintained
• Identifying hazards and taking proactive steps to address them
• Assisting with the occasional unexpected task that comes with supporting a busy aged care facility

We're Looking For Someone Who:

• Is reliable, trustworthy, and takes ownership of their work
• Works efficiently and can manage their workload independently
• Is flexible and able to pivot when priorities change
• Has a practical, "can-do" attitude and enjoys problem-solving
• Takes pride in maintaining high standards of presentation and cleanliness
• Communicates well and gets along with a wide range of people
• Is comfortable working around elderly and vulnerable residents and always treats people with dignity and respect

Requirements

• Clean Police Vetting (essential)
• Full driver's licence (highly desirable)
• Previous maintenance, handyman, groundskeeping, property, or trade experience preferred

At Kenderdine Park, our mission is to be a place where people feel safe, valued and cared for. We're looking for someone who will help us maintain a home that reflects those values every day.

If you're dependable, practical, and take pride in a job well done, we'd love to hear from you.
