About us
Able Management is a Sydney-based home services business. We work with aged care and disability providers to help older people live safely and independently at home. We provide gardening, cleaning, repairs, safety modifications and general upkeep for their clients.

The role
You'll visit clients' homes across Sydney to keep their lawns, gardens and outdoor areas tidy and safe. Our office handles referrals, quotes and scheduling. You call the client before each visit, do the job properly, and send photos and notes when it's done.

• Pressure washing paths, driveways and outdoor areas
• Keeping paths, steps and entrances clear of overgrowth, leaves and moss
• Spotting outdoor hazards (uneven paths, trip risks, overhanging branches, slippery surfaces) and reporting them to the office
• Assessing larger garden jobs so we can quote accurately
• Taking before and after photos and writing brief job notes on your phone

• Your own equipment, including a mower, whipper snipper, blower and hedge trimmer
• A reliable vehicle (ute or van with a trailer preferred) and a current NSW driver licence
