Bush Regeneration Assistant - Brookvale
Location: Brookvale, NSW
Employment Type: Permanent Part-time, Friday 9 am to 3 pm
About the Role
Bushlink offers paid and training opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities working in bush regeneration and gardening services. Our Bush Regeneration Assistants work in small teams and are supported by experienced supervisors who provide training, structure, and guidance every step of the way. We help care for local bushland through activities like weeding, planting, mulching, raking and site maintenance. As a Bush Regeneration Assistant, you’ll work alongside volunteers as part of our Corporate Volunteering Experience days as well as with local schools where we engage with school children in hands-on gardening and bush regeneration activities.
Our Bushlink teams are based in Brookvale and work across the Northern Beaches area - making a real difference to the natural environment and the community.
This is a great opportunity for ambulant people living with mild to moderate disabilities, who would enjoy being outdoors, working with their hands, and being part of a supportive team.
We’re currently looking for three people to join us for a Friday shift, and we would love to hear from you, or someone you know, if you’re keen to become a member of our Bushlink team!
