About AWC: The delivery of AWC's mission - the effective conservation of Australian wildlife and their habitats - is highly reliant on all AWC working collaboratively with each other as a cohesive, engaged, collaborative, high-performing group guided by strong, effective leaders.
Introduction: AWC's work is guided by core values. At AWC, we are: accountable, informed, respectful, dedicated, innovative, sustainable.

- Develop positive stakeholder relationships and drive effective conservation outcomes with metrics such as indicator species populations, reduction in un-prescribed fires, control of feral animals and invasive weeds, and cost efficiency.
- Efficiently manage resources according to an approved budget and operations plan, ensuring integration between operations and science teams.
- Engage with stakeholders and AWC supporters, including participation in events and communications; advocate for AWC's conservation model and achievements.
- Formal qualifications in a relevant discipline are advantageous, but strong practical experience and a proven track record in land management on-ground results are valued more highly.
- Licenses and certifications: valid manual driver's license with 4WD experience (essential); 4WD training can be provided; senior first aid certificate (remote certification) – highly desirable; agricultural machinery licenses (desirable); firearms license (highly desirable); chemical use certification; National Police Check (or equivalent).

This role is initially offered as a 12-month fixed-term contract with the possibility of extension or permanency. The role is based in Alice Springs with regular trips to Ngalurrtju (approx. 250km northwest), where basic on-site accommodation is available.
