Undergraduate Horticulturalist (Softworks) NSW

Innovative Thinking. Extraordinary Outcomes.

For over fifty years, Regal Innovations has helped shape Australia’s public spaces. What began as a small landscaping business was built on a simple idea-every space has the potential to become something more. That instinct to look beyond the brief and imagine what could be became the foundation for everything that followed.

As Regal grew, so did its ambition, from landscaping to civil works, major infrastructure, commercial construction, and residential development. Through it all, the same commitment to quality and care has remained.

Now, Regal is looking for an experienced and motivated Softworks Horticulturist to join our maintenance division. If you’re passionate about horticulture, take pride in your work and enjoy working outdoors, this is your opportunity. Our expected pay rate for this role is $27.00 - $38.00 per hour plus superannuation.

Reporting to the Maintenance Team Leader, you will be responsible for maintaining commercial landscapes to the highest standards while contributing to a safe, efficient, and professional workplace.

We’d love to hear from you if:

• You hold a qualification in Horticulture (or a related discipline).
• Have demonstrated experience in softworks horticulture, commercial landscaping, civil works or landscape maintenance.
• You hold a current White Card.
• Strong knowledge of plants, soils, irrigation systems, and seasonal maintenance practices.
• The ability to work independently and as part of a team.

In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Planting and maintaining trees, shrubs, grasses, groundcovers, seasonal plants, and turf.
• Mowing, edging, weeding, pruning, mulching, fertilising, watering, and general garden maintenance.
• Preparing soil, establishing garden beds, installing turf, and maintaining lawns.
• Installing, monitoring, and carrying out basic repairs to irrigation systems.

• Safely and effectively operating horticultural tools and equipment.
• Maintaining clean, organised, and safe worksites in accordance with site management plans and safe work procedures.
• Identifying hazards, assisting with risk assessments, and promptly reporting incidents.
• Building positive working relationships with clients, colleagues, subcontractors, and members of the public.

In return, Regal offers:

• A supportive and experienced team environment.
• Competitive wages.
• The opportunity to contribute to a diverse range of projects.
• An annual social calendar of fun activities and events.

We’re committed to ensuring that our recruitment process is fair, inclusive, free from bias, and accessible to all candidates.
