Gold Coast, Australia Environment and Science Full time

David Fleay Wildlife Park is one of three Gateway Visitor Centres, managed by Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service & Partnerships. The Centres aim to support Queensland's ecotourism aspirations, enhance exciting visitor experiences, build public advocacy, and provide a gateway connection to Queensland's national parks. The Wildlife Park showcases the legacy of Dr David Fleay and many iconic threatened species of Queensland. Partner Centres include Walkabout Creek Discovery Centre at The Gap, Brisbane and Mon Repos Turtle Centre at Bargara in Bundaberg.
Rangers ensure that the Queensland's national parks, state forests and reserves are protected, accessible and valued by all Queenslanders. Rangers work in partnership with local communities and other stakeholders to contribute to the land management, recreational and conservation outcomes across the protected areas which are managed by DES under the Nature Conservation Act 1992, Recreation Areas Management Act 2006, Marine Parks Act 2004, Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Act 1975, Forestry Act 1959 and other relevant legislation.
Rangers may work across five focus areas dependent on operational need, including Pest Management, Fire Management, Estate Management, Visitor Management and Assets (including Wildlife) and Safety. As such, Rangers may turn their hands to a wide range of jobs that can be safely undertaken by non-tradespersons. Rangers work on a roster basis which can include regular weekend work.
The successful applicant will work independently on a daily basis and will require great communication and time management skills. Travel to other locations may be required from time to time and may include overnight stays.
Refer to the attached Working as a Ranger, Additional Information for an overview of the focus areas and general working life.
