Kingston, Australia Australian Government - Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water Full time

EL 2 - $141,563 - $164,475 per annum plus superannuation
- Australian Antarctic Division
- Kingston, TAS

**Who we are**
The Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) is part of the Commonwealth Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water. As primary agency for Australia's Antarctic Program (AAP), the AAD is responsible for achieving the Australian Government's Antarctic goals.

These goals are to:

- Maintain the Antarctic Treaty System and enhance Australia's influence within it.
- Protect the Antarctic environment.
- Understand the role of Antarctica in the global climate system.
- Undertake scientific work of practical, economic and national significance.

The AAD also has responsibility for administering the Australian Antarctic Territory and the Territory of Heard Island and McDonald Islands.

The AAD Science Branch leads, conducts and supports a world class program of scientific research and environmental management, consistent with national priorities through the Australian Antarctic Science Strategic Plan. The branch provides research and advice to support Australia’s Antarctic policy objectives, including participation in the Antarctic Treaty system and other international committees, commissions and intergovernmental panels. It manages and administers the Australian Antarctic Science Program and provides scientific and research advice to support regulatory and management decisions.

The branch provides advice for Antarctic capability projects, conducts impact assessments and develops and implements strategies to address environmental legacies while undertaking targeted outreach promoting the value of Australian Antarctic science. The responsibilities of the Science Branch are diverse as we lead the Australian Government’s scientific program in Antarctica. Our research addresses critical issues including climate change, the human footprint in Antarctica, and the conservation of Antarctic and Southern Ocean wildlife. Our diverse research program covers physical and life sciences in the atmosphere, terrestrial and marine domains.

The Environmental Stewardship Program (ESP), within the Science Branch, is a multidisciplinary program that conducts scientific research and implements evidence-based conservation, environmental management, environmental assessments, remediation and mitigation actions in Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic. A key program area conducts and applies science and engineering research to understand risk, remediate and monitor impacts from human activities, including contaminants, in polar environments. The program collaborates closely with external research partners to deliver an actionable Cleaner Antarctica Strategy for Australian stations, as well as scientific, environmental management and policy outcomes.

**The Job**
The Environmental Remediation and Restoration Lead will provide leadership, specialist scientific and management expertise to the whole of the Environmental Stewardship Program, Science Branch and AAD on a range of strategic projects focused on minimising and managing localised impacts of human activities, infrastructure developments and operations in Antarctica. As a priority, they will work with a motivated team of scientists, engineers and technical specialists delivering on the Cleaner Antarctic science program of works (fuel spill remediation, contaminated site and environmental risk assessments, development and assessment of cold region remediation options) and the Antarctic Clean-Up Strategy.

Under broad direction with significant degree of independence, the main duties of the role include:

- Leading and managing a multidisciplinary team of scientists, engineers and technical specialists in support of Australia’s Antarctic contaminated site assessment, clean-up and remediation and restoration outcomes, including the multi-year fuel spill remediation program.
- Overseeing planning, coordination and execution of a range of field and laboratory programs led or supported by the Environmental Stewardship Program.
- Providing:

- Advice in support of the design, implementation, operation and monitoring of human impact assessment, remediation and restoration programs through expertise in one or more fields of contemporary contaminant, environmental risk, site characterisation, and remediation (for example contaminant mobility and transport, hydrogeology, soil and water remediation, environmental chemistry, geotechnical/environmental engineering)
- Engaging strategically, with advanced skills, to develop and maintain excellent relations with a diverse group of collaborative partners and stakeholders throughout the AAD and DCCEEW, and with external partners to deliver on environmental stewardship priorities, in particular human impact and remediation related research and implementation.
- Managing the development of budgets, media and communications packages, and reporting as part of broader suite of project management duties of the role.
