About the role

National Parks and Wildlife Service has a unique opportunity for a Project Engineer to join the Perisher team and help deliver essential municipal services in one of Australia's most spectacular alpine environments. In this role, you will take on a diverse range of projects, from managing contracts and consultants through to compliance reporting, data collection and asset management.

Your expertise will ensure infrastructure across the Perisher Range resorts meets the highest standards of safety, environmental practice and compliance.
