About Us
Lavender Estate (formerly Yanchep Lavender Farm) is an award-winning agritourism venue where Guests can experience the journey from paddock to product. Our farm, distillery, café, retail store, and event spaces all work together to create a truly immersive experience – and our stunning lavender fields are at the heart of it all.

About the Role
We’re looking for an experienced and motivated Farm Maintenance and Production Manager to take ownership of our lavender fields, grounds, equipment, and oil distillation process. This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll balance day-to-day farm work with planning, seasonal coordination, and Team supervision.

From perfecting the presentation of our fields to overseeing the annual harvest, you’ll ensure our property looks its best, runs efficiently, and meets the high standards our Guests expect. Depending on the right candidate fit, you may occasionally step into a host role – giving short (15–5 minute) presentations to small groups.

Key Responsibilities

Maintain lavender fields, gardens, pathways, fencing, and signage to a premium standard year-round

Manage plant health, irrigation, crop care, and seasonal pruning

Plan and lead the annual lavender harvest and operate distillation equipment

Maintain and service tractors, mowers, harvest machinery, and processing equipment

Supervise and train seasonal Farm Team Members during peak times

Oversee ordering, stock control, and supplier coordination for farm consumables and parts

Occasionally deliver short presentations or demonstrations to tour groups and event visitors

Uphold strict safety, compliance, and risk management practices

About You
You’re a practical problem-solver with strong mechanical and horticultural skills, and you thrive working outdoors in a visual, Guest-facing environment. You take pride in presentation, lead by example, and can keep things running smoothly even in peak season. You’re also comfortable speaking to small groups and sharing your passion for the farm when needed.

What You’ll Bring

Proven farm maintenance or property management experience

Mechanical aptitude and ability to maintain farm machinery

Knowledge of plant health, soil care, and pest management

Strong organisational skills and the ability to plan seasonally

Leadership skills with a focus on training and supporting your Team

Comfortable giving short, engaging presentations to visitors

Commitment to safety and high presentation standards

Driver’s licence preferred (but not essential)

Why Join Us?
At Lavender Estate, you’ll be part of a close-knit Team in a stunning location, working in a role where you can see the results of your effort every day. You’ll have the opportunity to influence the Guest experience, shape the look of our signature lavender fields, and contribute to a growing tourism destination.
