Randstad has partnered with ALPA, the NT’s powerhouse Aboriginal-owned corporation, to recruit practical, resilient talent for transformative remote roles.

What The Role Entails: This is a full-time, permanent remote residential position in an isolated Aboriginal Community in Arnhem Land. Living here delivers rugged natural beauty and deep cultural immersion; it requires self-reliance, independence, and grit.

Are you a natural tinkerer, handy with a wrench, or experienced in groundskeeping and small engine repairs? Whether you’re ditching the 9-to-5 or stepping out of retirement, this role is about rolling up your sleeves, passing on hard trade skills, and immersing yourself in Yolŋu Culture.

What You Will Do:

  • Site & Gear Coordination: Oversee site logistics, maintain small engines (mowers, power tools), and keep workshops clean, safe, and fully stocked.
  • Hands-On Mentoring: Work side-by-side with local Yolŋu Supervisors and participants, teaching practical skills in groundskeeping, mechanics, tool safety, and construction projects.
  • Logistics & Safety: Execute site purchasing, stock ordering, safety briefings, and operational reporting.
  • Community Enterprise: Build strong, respectful partnerships with Elders and Traditional Owners to deliver tough, community-led projects.

What You Bring:

  • Practical background in trades, groundskeeping, mechanical repairs, or heavy outdoor operations.
  • A drive to mentor, coach, and build capability in others.
  • Solid cultural awareness and the resilience to thrive in remote environments.
  • A practical, resource-smart approach to drive participant engagement in resource-poor conditions; out-of-the-box problem solving is essential.
  • Unrestricted Manual Driver's Licence (mandatory).
  • NT Working with Children Clearance (Ochre Card) & First Aid Certificate (or ability to obtain).
  • Computer literacy (Microsoft Office) and an understanding of tracking operational outcomes and KPIs.

What You Gain In Return:

  • 14% Superannuation (significantly above standard)
  • Free Shared Housing + Utilities
  • PBI Salary Packaging: Maximise take-home pay ($15,900/yr tax-free)
  • 7 Weeks Annual Leave + 17.5% loading + 2x paid return flights to Darwin per year
  • Monthly Phone Allowance
  • Relocation Assistance: Nationwide support to get you to community

An Experience 99% of Australians Will Never Get: Live, work, and operate on Yolŋu Country.
