Company Description

With properties in some of Australia’s most iconic locations, NRMA Parks & Resorts provide accommodation that suits every budget, style, and occasion – from campsites to luxury resorts. We connect holidaymakers with over 50 incredible destinations to create unforgettable holiday experiences.

Part of the trusted NRMA Group, a member-owned brand, our passionate team works together to make holiday magic happen—it's not just our job, it's in our nature.


Job Description

Ready to trade your toolbox for a tropical paradise? Join the team at Darlington Beach Holiday Resort, where every day feels like a holiday and your handiwork helps keep our natures retreat looking lush! This is a Full-Time permanent opportunity with grounds and gardens being the major focus.  Flexibility will be required to assist with facilities maintenance as needed.

  • Work where others holiday: Enjoy the breeze while you keep our grounds and gardens in tip-top shape.
  • No two days the same: From mowing lawns to basic facility maintenance, you’ll be the go-to for all things green and gleaming.
  • Be the behind-the-scenes hero: Your efforts make every guest’s stay picture-perfect—one freshly mown lawn and sparkling pool at a time.
  • Join a fun, supportive crew: We work hard, laugh harder, and celebrate a job well done.

What you’ll do

As a Grounds & Maintenance all-rounder, you will assist with the following:

  • Keep our resort grounds immaculate; mowing, weeding, pruning, and landscaping like a pro.
  • Dive into pool care; cleaning, dosing, water balancing, and basic repairs.
  • Maintain and clean public areas, ensuring everything’s guest-ready.
  • Pitch in on gardening projects, basic mechanical repairs, and a splash of painting.
  • Lend a hand with minor repairs across cabins, campsites, amenities, and facilities.
  • Deliver friendly, incidental customer service—because a helping hand goes a long way!

What you’ll bring

  • Experience in grounds and basic maintenance work (trade qualification not required—we love a true all-rounder!).
  • Skills with ride-on and push mowers, pruning, hedging, landscaping, and weed control.
  • Knowledge of safe working procedures and basic hygiene requirements.
  • Ability to work unsupervised and a hands-on, can-do attitude.
  • Hardworking, energetic, and enthusiastic, with a good level of fitness (it’s a physically demanding role!).

What’s in it for you?

At the NRMA we aren’t just about discounts (although you do get these too). We offer benefits to help make work and life just right for you!

  • Progressive flexibility, leave and well-being benefits to balance all of life's priorities
  • Travel discounts on SIXT car rental, cruises, and accommodation at our award-winning NRMA Holiday Parks and Resorts.
  • Complimentary myNRMA Rewards membership including free Roadside Assistance & discounts on groceries, movie tickets, gift cards, gym memberships, attractions, restaurants and much more
  • Discounts on a range of NRMA personal insurance products including car, home & travel
  • Grow, progress or relocate your career and move around the NRMA Group or different locations with us.

Know you belong

That’s why we welcome applications from First Nations Australians, people with disability, those from diverse cultural backgrounds, people of all genders, members of the LGBTQI+ community, and anyone else who wants to be part of our team.
