Rural Weed Spraying - New Plymouth

placeNew Plymouth calendar_month 

Agman provides a range of vegetation control services (primarily weed spraying) to rural and commercial clients throughout Taranaki and further afield. We are an established and successful small business, and pride ourselves on our professionalism and the quality of our work.

We have a permanent position available for somebody to take ownership of our rural spraying work.

Your role will primarily be gun spraying weeds. Our rural gun spraying typically targets gorse, but you could also be spraying ragwort, thistles, blackberry, etc. You will be working from a Toyota Hilux or Can-Am Defender, depending on the job, and all spray units have remote reels for ease of use.

You could also be doing industrial ground spraying and biodiversity pest plant work to assist the other areas of our business and broaden your knowledge base.

We aim to work in teams of two, but you may be required to work alone at times. If working in a team of two, you may be the assigned team leader, so having the ability to provide clear instruction would be helpful.

Ideal candidates will have the following:
  • Can-do attitude
  • Able to follow instructions
  • Clear communication skills
  • Honest and methodical worker (do the job right)
  • Reliable
  • Practical thinker
  • Basic weed identification skills
  • Good initiative and common sense
  • Focus on health and safety
  • Reasonable level of fitness (capable of walking up a hill)
  • Well presented

You need to be a good worker with a great work ethic to excel in this role. Close enough is not good enough for us. You must be able to provide an exceptional service to our clients.

Having a Growsafe Basic or Growsafe Standard qualification would be an advantage, but not essential, as we can teach you the skills if you don’t already have them.

You will need to have a full class one driver’s license and be competent at driving a manual vehicle offroad.

We are based a few minutes out of Waitara.

You should consider this role if you have experience with weed spraying.

Serious applicants only please.
