Real outdoor work across the Sunshine Coast (the Sunny Coast) and the wider SEQ region — from Caloundra and Maroochydore through Mooloolaba and the hinterland. Hiring tractor slashing operators, arborists, tree workers, vegetation management crews, brushcutter operators and outdoor labourers right now.
Rivercity Environmental has been delivering outdoor environmental services on the Sunshine Coast for more than two decades. Our work for Sunshine Coast Council includes large-scale tractor slashing programs, vegetation management on road corridors and reserves, arboriculture support and reactive callouts — the kind of consistent, weather-resilient outdoor work that runs year-round.
You will work on visible Sunshine Coast jobs — vegetation clearing along the coastal corridor, tractor slashing on rural-residential reserves, arboriculture work like the Norfolk Pine removals at Alexander Headlands and the Eagles Nest relocation, and ongoing weed and brush management for council and commercial clients.
Crews are mobilised onto the Sunshine Coast from our Lawnton and Molendinar depots, with field staff who often live locally between Caboolture and Noosa. Pay is fair, work is consistent, and we are always interested in dependable people with tractor, brushcutter and chainsaw tickets — or the right attitude to earn them.
