A Camp Manager with the Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) will work under the broad direction of the appointed Field Leader prior to departure and during deployment.

As a member of the field camp's senior leadership team, the role may include a Deputy Field Leader component where the incumbent may be required to relieve the Field Leader if operational priorities require it.

The position has an operational and strategic focus, working with a significant level of autonomy, capable of managing and prioritising personal workloads and those of the broader field camp community. The Camp Manager will work with a range of operational and science stakeholders in a high-tempo environment, requiring emotional intelligence and a high level of written and verbal communication skills.

Specifically, this position is responsible for the management of pre-campaign field camp design refinement, cargo consignment, in-field camp construction and ongoing operational camp management. Deep field operations, camp infrastructure maintenance and ongoing project support are particularly dynamic in nature and require a highly flexible approach to the way daily functions are prioritised. This position plays an essential role in ensuring the delivery of safe field operations to the Australian Antarctic Program.
