Job description

At Green by Nature, we’re more than just a greenspace maintenance team - we’re passionate about enhancing and preserving the natural beauty of Queenstown, Wānaka, and the surrounding Lakes District areas. As a trusted partner of the Queenstown Lakes District Council, we care for the region’s parks, playgrounds, and public spaces - helping to make our community an even better place to live and visit.

About The Role

As a Mower Operator, you’ll play a key role in keeping Queenstown / Lakes District parks, reserves, and high-profile spaces looking their best. Your daily work will involve :

  • Operating ride‑on mowers to maintain sports fields and green spaces
  • Weed eating, edging, and push mowing for those finer finishing touches
  • Performing basic maintenance to keep equipment in top condition
  • Meeting client expectations with a high standard of presentation and care

What You’ll Bring

  • Experience operating ride‑on mowers and small plant equipment
  • A full, current driver’s licence (manual required; Class 2 a bonus)
  • Good level of physical fitness – this role doesn't just require you to sit on your mower
  • Basic technology skills would be beneficial
  • A strong commitment to health and safety, and a positive, can‑do attitude
  • A willingness to learn, grow, and be a valuable part of the team!
  • What We Can Offer

    As part of our team, you'll have the opportunity to work with other professionals, gain further knowledge and experience, and develop your career in greenspace maintenance. We offer regular work hours with the opportunity for more based on operational needs, a performance‑based wage that is reviewed annually, and an annual wellness benefit. You'll also receive a work phone which is permitted for personal use.

    About Us

    Green by Nature is a diversified professional full facility, parks maintenance, sports turf, landscaping and horticulture company, operating across New Zealand and Australia. We have 2000+ employees, have been an industry leader for over 30 years and are committed to a culture of health and safety, excellence, and continuous improvement, whilst caring for our people, clients, and communities.

    If you're a motivated individual looking to make impact within a company that has been an industry leader for over 30 years, apply now!

    In accordance with the Company's Drug & Alcohol Policy, the successful candidate will be required to undergo and pass a pre‑employment drug test.
