The Senior Biosecurity Officer role at Department of Primary Industries (Queensland). Biosecurity Queensland plays a vital role in securing the state's agricultural prosperity and preserving and protecting the health of our environment and economy. We are dedicated to safeguarding both human and animal health by preventing and mitigating plant and animal pests and diseases. We work tirelessly to uphold a high level of animal welfare standards and maintain access to interstate markets, critical for Queensland's thriving primary industries. Biosecurity Queensland monitors and regulates the application of agricultural and veterinary chemicals, ensuring they are used safely and in compliance with legislation. With a commitment to developing capabilities and preparedness, we are at the forefront of protecting Queensland against biosecurity risks.

Responsibilities
  • Deliver operational services that protect Queensland from the impacts of high-risk invasive species and mitigate their effects on the economy and environment.
  • Prevent the establishment of invasive species and support stakeholders to manage them.
  • Contribute as a senior member of a high-performing team.
