Fixed Term Contract

**Location**:
Melbourne - South Region, Melbourne - Docklands

**Categories**:
Environment, Planning

**Who we are**:
In Melbourne, water is essential to our way of life.

As caretakers for Melbourne’s water cycle, we care for water, life and land throughout Melbourne: both its people and its biodiversity.

Each time you drink from the tap, flush a toilet, run through a yard sprinkler, or kayak down the Yarra—we’re there. Primed and ready, quietly delivering some of the world’s cleanest water for over five million residents and wildlife that call Melbourne home —just as we have for over 130 years.

If you value making it count, diving in with curiosity, and doing what’s right, you're in the right place.

**About the Role**:
This part time fixed term contract (through to June 2028) is based at either our Docklands head office, or our South East Regional Office in Bangholme. Reporting to the Area Lead Catchment Partnerships, this is a pivotal role within the Service Partnerships team. As the Ramsar Partnerships Coordinator you will be responsible for overseeing the implementation of the Western Port Ramsar Site Management Plan through collaboration with internal and external stakeholders, and convening and chairing the Western Port Ramsar Site Coordinating Committee. The role will also deliver the ‘Restoring Western Port’ project on behalf of State Government. The role may also be required to support the management of other Ramsar wetland areas within Melbourne Water’s operating region or related initiatives as required.

**About you**:

- Demonstrated coordination of significant projects on time, within budget, and in collaboration with multiple external partners. Of particular importance is experience in developing project logic and adaptive management.
- A sound understanding of wetland ecosystems and natural resource management.
- A high level of communication and interpersonal skills including facilitation, presentation and consultation with a wide range of audiences.
- A high level of written and report writing skills.
- Well organised and outcomes-focused, with demonstrated skills in planning, priority setting and time management.
- Ability to think creatively, to work under pressure, and recognise and respond to sensitive issues.
- A valid Victorian driver’s licence
- Ability to pass a Police Check
- Working with Children Check

**Why join us**:
At Melbourne Water, we care about water and all life that springs from it.

Our people are fuelled by passion, and with safety at the forefront, we have an unwavering sense of purpose, and are on a mission to protect every Melburnian’s way of life, one drop at a time.

We walk the talk when it comes to flexible working - but that’s not all. Our culture of purpose, safety, results, and learning permeates everything we do. We're dedicated to doing what's right, and this commitment extends to the meaningful work we do in a supportive and inclusive culture that encourages you to make the most of your talents.
