Canberra, Australia CSIRO Full time

**Acknowledgement of Country**:
CSIRO acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land, sea and waters, of the area that we live and work on across Australia. We acknowledge their continuing connection to their culture and pay our respects to their Elders past and present. View our vision towards reconciliation

**Child safety**:
CSIRO is committed to the safety and wellbeing of all children and young people involved in our activities and programs. View our Child Safe Policy.

**The opportunity**:

- **Leverage your passion for Indigenous Science and environmental research in an impactful role**:

- **Be a leading voice in acknowledging the value of Indigenous science and knowledge systems**:

- **Make a lasting change in CSIRO's commitment to improve collaborations with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples**

At CSIRO's NCMI (National Collections and Marine Infrastructure business unit) our goal is to solve Australia’s greatest challenges by leading Australia’s landmark marine and biodiversity infrastructure and carrying out innovative science.

At NCMI, we are custodians of the National Research Collections Australia (NRCA) which is home to 15 million natural history specimens that are used to understand Australia’s rich biodiversity. We also host the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA), a collaborative, digital, open infrastructure that pulls together Australian biodiversity data from multiple sources (including NRCA), making it accessible and reusable. The collections, their associated digital infrastructure and the ALA, help to create a more detailed picture of Australia’s biodiversity for scientists, policy makers, environmental planners and land managers, industry and the general public.

As the Project Leader for Indigenous Science & Biological Collections, you will help NCMI embed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices and views within CSIRO’s National Research Collections and the Atlas of Living Australia.
You will establish and undertake a co-design process with an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander reference group to identify areas of mutual benefit and build opportunities for co-designed and Indigenous-led science.
You will contribute to establishing trusted relationships with Indigenous cultural knowledge holders, Indigenous organisations and relevant Australian initiatives, including ones related to Indigenous Cultural and Intellectual Property and Indigenous Data Sovereignty.
The project will review our policies and practices for the management and use of biological specimens and associated data, to identify any gaps in relation to CSIRO and national policies and international agreements.

This is an opportunity to lead our step change to acknowledge the value of Indigenous science and knowledge systems and contribute to new ways of working and research. This work will contribute to CSIRO’s commitment to improve collaborations with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in transforming the Australian science landscape, towards a future innovation system, in which Indigenous science, governance, cultural knowledge and practice are acknowledged and interwoven with western science.

**Your duties will include**:

- Leading and managing the Indigenous Science and CSIRO’s national research collections and digital infrastructure project, including project management and planning, financial management.
- Working with multiple teams and stakeholders to co-design, plan and co-deliver the project, and then monitor and manage the establishment and effectiveness of the project.
- Establishing and providing support to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander reference group and CSIRO project advisory group.
- Engaging with and establishing trusted relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural knowledge holders, communities and organisations to identify research opportunities which are determined by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stakeholders.
- Establishing relationships with relevant CSIRO stakeholders and business units who will provide guidance to the project and establishing and maintaining effective communication with key contacts.
- Establishing collaborative relationships with relevant initiatives (such as Australian Research Data Commons Indigenous data commons), where appropriate.
- Engaging expertise as required to support NRCA and ALA to deliver project elements, as appropriate.
- In conjunction with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples supporting initiatives aimed at focussing activities which address social and cultural acceptance of recognising and valuing Indigenous knowledge systems and science.
- Other duties as directed.
