  • Collaborate with senior ecologists to integrate land management, science and partnerships.
  • Engage and advocate with partners, stakeholders and supporters; contribute to communications efforts.
  • Manage finances within budget, prepare reports, and monitor expenditures.
  • Ensure compliance with permits, reporting, and contract management; maintain records and data.
Requirements
  • Formal qualifications in a relevant discipline are advantageous but practical on-ground experience and a track record of delivering results are valued higher.
  • Demonstrated experience delivering on-ground land management programs in collaboration with partners.
  • Strong planning and organisational skills; ability to prioritise multiple tasks.
  • Proven leadership and people-management skills for remote teams, including recruitment and development.
  • Excellent relationship-building and communication with diverse stakeholders.
  • Experience in planned burning, wildfire suppression, feral eradication, and weed management.
