Apprentice- Horticulture

If you like working outdoors, take pride in seeing the results of your effort, and want a career where your work actually matters to the community, this could be the start you're looking for.

This apprenticeship is for someone who wants more than just a job. It's for someone who wants to learn a trade, build skills that last, and contribute to green spaces that people use every day. You'll work alongside experienced horticulture professionals who are invested in teaching you properly, not just keeping you busy.

At Green by Nature, apprentices aren't an afterthought. You're part of the team from day one, learning hands on, supported to grow, and encouraged to take pride in your work as your skills develop.

You'll learn the fundamentals of horticulture while working on well maintained public spaces in The Ponds area. Day to day, this includes:

• Learning how to care for lawns, gardens, trees, and landscaped areas
• Assisting with planting, pruning, mulching, and general garden upkeep
• Using tools and equipment safely and correctly with full training provided
• Working alongside qualified team members who guide and support you
• Building skills in irrigation basics, soil health, and plant care
• Keeping sites clean, safe, and welcoming for the community
• Developing good work habits, reliability, and pride in workmanship

No two days are the same, and you'll steadily take on more responsibility as your confidence and skills grow.

We're focused on potential, not perfection. You don't need experience in horticulture to apply.

What matters most is:

• A genuine interest in working outdoors and learning a trade
• A willingness to listen, learn, and give things a go
• Reliability and a positive attitude toward teamwork
• Basic fitness for outdoor, hands on work
• A current driver's licence or willingness to obtain one

This role is open to school leavers, mature age apprentices, career changers, and women entering the trade. If you're motivated and curious, we want to hear from you.

Our strength lies in the unique culture created by the 2,000 odd employees living and working across Australia and New Zealand. Our position as a global, progressive and innovative green space company is underpinned by the expertise and passion of our people. Together, we nurture green spaces, the environment and our people.

At Green by Nature, you'll benefit from:

• Stable, predictable weekday work that supports work life balance
• A safety first culture with quality equipment and proper training
• Real mentoring from people who care about developing you
• A strong sense of team identity and belonging
• Clear career pathways beyond your apprenticeship
• The satisfaction of contributing to green spaces that communities value

This is a place where people stay, grow, and build long term careers.

If you're excited but not sure you tick every box, apply anyway. Apprenticeships are about learning, and we're committed to supporting people who want to build a future in horticulture.
