Grounds Person FTC 12mnths

Perth Airport is Australia’s Western Hub connecting the people, businesses and communities of Western Australia with the rest of Australia and the world. Operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week throughout the year, Perth Airport plays a significant role in providing economic, social and cultural benefits to West Australians.

With aviation bouncing back strongly after Covid-19 and with a surge in regional passenger numbers and activity it is time for us to get on and progress through a period of increased activity at Perth Airport, supporting the growth of the state of Western Australia and contributing to the prosperity of all Australians.

The Perth Airport estate is spread over 2100 hectares and has developed a $1.3 billion portfolio of existing industrial premises and significant vacant land holdings.

We have a unique opportunity for an experienced Grounds Person.

This is a fixed term, replacement role to cover for extended leave.

What you'll do:

As a Grounds Person, you will be responsible for operating various plant and equipment safely and performing routine maintenance and repairs on airside pavements, grassed areas, and markers in compliance with aerodrome standards and Perth Airport's policies and procedures.

About you:

We are looking for a proactive and skilled Grounds Person to join our Operations team.

You have experience operating plant and equipment and have worked at similar role before. Additionally, having experience and understanding of aerodrome environment, possessing trade certificates and relevant tickets are highly preferred, but not essential.

You like to tackle tasks head on, and you are a team player who provides support to others when needed. You are comfortable using MS Office and other IT systems, and using new technologies does not phase you.

About us:

Perth Airport is an Equal Opportunities Employer. We are committed to building an equitable and diverse workforce representative of the community we serve. We encourage and welcome applications from all communities and backgrounds.

Doing the right thing by the planet and future generations is important to us. At PAPL we place a strong emphasis on embedding sustainability throughout our business strategy and operations. We remain steadfast in our commitment to driving ESPG (Environmental, Social, People, Governance) performance across our value chain and areas that have material environmental and social impact.
