Keep your resume simple, concise, easy to read and focused on selling your skills. We'd prefer that your resume is no longer than four pages. And of course, make it professional and clearly written with no grammatical errors, spelling mistakes or typos.

Applications should ideally be made online via our careers opportunities site so that your application is electronically stored in our resume database.

For careers in Home services across NSW, you may also enquire about a career with us at your local branch. The local branch staff will be able to assist with your application.
