Ground Up Recruitment · South East Queensland
Landscaping recruitment
Specialising in direct recruitment for landscape construction and maintenance businesses across the Sunshine Coast, Moreton Bay and Brisbane North.
A brief built around your business
Landscape construction and garden maintenance call for different skills. We start with the actual work: hardscaping, turf, drainage, planting, equipment use, customer contact and the level of responsibility on site.
Roles we can discuss
- Landscape construction team members
- Leading hands and crew supervisors
- Garden and grounds maintenance staff
- Landscape estimating and administration
- Scheduling, customer service and operations support
These are examples of recruitment assignments, not a list of current vacancies or available candidates.
Industry experience behind the conversation
Andrew has operated a landscaping business and hired and managed teams. His experience covers quoting, scheduling, materials, site delivery and customer expectations, providing a practical foundation for understanding the person your crew needs.
How direct recruitment works
You employ or engage and pay the successful person directly. We discuss the vacancy, agree written terms, source and review candidates, and coordinate suitable introductions. Ground Up Recruitment does not provide an on-hire payroll.
Assignments can cover full-time or part-time permanent employment, casual, fixed-term and seasonal roles, and genuine independent contractor introductions. Requirements and suitability are discussed for each assignment.
Clear fees before recruitment starts
Our introductory permanent placement fee is 12% of annual base salary plus GST for a new client’s first permanent placement, with a 30-day exclusive assignment. Subsequent permanent placements are 15% plus GST. A placement fee becomes payable when the candidate starts. Conditional 12-week replacement cover is subject to written terms. Fees for other engagement types are agreed separately.
Start with your vacancy
Tell us whether the role involves construction or maintenance, the typical work sites, start times, transport requirements, machinery and tickets, and whether the person will lead others. These details help make the brief useful from the outset.
Our initial service area is the Sunshine Coast, Moreton Bay and Brisbane North. Share the role location so we can confirm whether we can assist.
