- Package includes salary $89,707 - $98,982, employer's contribution to superannuation and annual leave loading
- Temporary full-time opportunity based in Katoomba until 30 June 2024 with potential for extension

**About the Role**

The Assistant Project Officer is responsible for performing field-based pest monitoring, coordinating the analysis of data and reporting, providing program management support services, providing assistance in the preparation of reports and briefs, maintaining project documentation and assisting the implementation and monitoring of project plans.

You will be working on the Land Management Program - a suite of works delivered under the Special Areas Strategic Plan of Management (SASPoM), a joint plan with WaterNSW to manage Sydney’s drinking water catchment lands. You will be contributing to the protection of diverse wilderness areas and landscapes with very high biodiversity and a large number of important threatened species populations and endangered ecological communities.

Your work will focus on a biosecurity monitoring project that measures vertebrate pest activity and changes in response to management actions. This involves coordinating and performing field-based data collection, maintenance and refinement of camera trap sites. You will collate survey datasets to support the development of activity models, you will collaborate with and provide regular feedback, mapping and other reporting to internal and external stakeholders, as well as review and update relevant procedures and plans. The field work can be in remote, wilderness areas of the Blue Mountains National Park, so you will enjoy a challenge, be focused on work, health and safety and be confidant in the outdoors.

You’ll be working directly with and supported by the program manager whilst staying connected to the Branch’s broader conservation staff. You’ll be regularly liaising with control program managers and field-based staff.

To be successful in the role, you will have:

- Experience in animal survey conservation fieldwork and survey data analysis.
- Experience in having assisted in achieving project deadlines and milestones to the required standards and within budget.
- Ability to establish and maintain effective internal and external stakeholder relationships and contribute to the project development and delivery in line with established plans, budgets, timeframes and priorities.

**Essential Requirements**
- Experience in the provision of administrative and support services
- Experience in development and delivery of programs and projects.
- Understanding of contemporary project management principles and practices.

**Desirable requirements**
- Experience with ArcMap or equivalent and competent with Microsoft Excel and Word.

- Ability to carry out all duties safely in accordance with WH&S requirements.
- Willingness and ability to work in remote and difficult environments where a moderate level of fitness is required.
