The newly formed Nature Positive Integration Division will deliver strategic policy with a sole focus on the environment, providing governance, high-level policy oversight and program delivery. The Division consists of three branches: Regional Planning and Landscapes, Environmental Policy Integration and Natural Heritage Trust.
The Environmental Policy Integration Branch (EPIB) has been established to support the delivery of priority programs of work across the Environment and Water areas of DCCEEW. EPIB’s work includes:
- supporting strategic delivery of priority projects under the Nature Positive Agenda

Biodiversity Policy leads development and negotiation of Australian Government positions to pursue Australia’s interests under the Convention of Biological Diversity and the development and implementation of Australia’s national biodiversity strategy and action plan (NBSAP). A key priority for the team is to align Australia’s NBSAP with the GBF, including by agreeing national targets with the states and territories for each of the goals and targets in the GBF. The team is also continuing to engage in a range of international workstreams, including the development of indicators to track global implementation of the GBF.

- preparing briefing, speeches, correspondence and reports for our ministers and senior executive
- supporting constructive and collaborative relationships with ministers’ offices, other areas of the department, Commonwealth agencies and other key stakeholders
- working as part of a team and contributing to effective team culture.
We are open to discussing flexible working arrangements and new ways of working.
