  • Who We Are:

    Protea Landscapes is a growing, family-owned landscaping business serving the Blue Mountains, Hawkesbury, Penrith and The Hills. Our tight-knit team is passionate about quality work, beautiful outdoor spaces, and investing in the people who make it all happen. We're a gardening and horticulture focused business — no large construction projects, just high-standard garden work done properly.

    The Opportunity:

    You'll lead a small crew across garden maintenance and horticulture work, ensuring jobs are completed to a consistently high standard. This role suits someone with solid hands-on experience who is ready to step up, take ownership, and set the tone for quality on every job.

If you're someone who takes shortcuts, does the bare minimum, or doesn't work well with others, this isn't the right fit. If you're someone who wants to be part of something worth being proud of — you'll fit right in.
