Job type: Part time / 3 Years

Organisation: Royal Botanic Gardens Board

**Salary**: $64,324 - $71,061

Occupation: Science

Reference: VG/422006

For 175 years, Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria has connected people with nature: originally at a heritage-listed landscape in the heart of Melbourne and, more recently, with the addition of a contemporary native garden set within a natural bushland reserve at Cranbourne.

- **South Yarra**

**About our Organisation**

Beyond their physical beauty, the Gardens contribute to global and local biodiversity knowledge, through research, discovery, protection, cultivation and restoration of rare and threatened plant species, both ex-situ and in the bushland, and as the insurance policy for a state's unique flora pre
- and post-bushfire recovery. RBGV is also the custodian of the $340 million State Botanical Collection (including over 1.5 million preserved plants, algae and fungi), housed within the National Herbarium of Victoria, and is a hub for global plant knowledge, with internationally recognised biodiversity management and conservation research programs.

The Gardens is also a steward for irreplaceable preserved plant collections, plant records, seeds and knowledge required for future generations to thrive; and is increasingly known for innovative engagement programs that highlight the role of nature in underpinning individual and community wellbeing, whilst fostering social inclusion for community benefit. It is also dedicated to stimulating conservation action and contributing to climate resilience, lifelong learning and unique memories for all visitors, at every stage of their lives.

**About the Role**

The Technical Assistant (Seedbank) is primarily responsible for the curation and accessioning of seed and plant material collected by RBGV staff. The incumbent will be responsible for seed cleaning, quantification, and annotation with valid and current names, as well as for determination of seed lot viability (via x-ray analysis) and the accurate databasing of material deposited into the Victorian Conservation Seedbank. Field work in remote areas may occasionally be required. Days worked can be flexible although it is preferable that the incumbent will be working onsite on Wednesdays to align with the team.
