About You

You are an organised, proactive, and culturally grounded professional with a strong commitment to advancing Ngarrindjeri interests and rights. You're confident working in partnership with government and community stakeholders, and you can balance strategic priorities with hands-on project delivery.

To succeed in this role, you'll bring:

  • A demonstrated understanding of and respect for Ngarrindjeri culture, values, and community priorities.
  • Proven experience in project coordination, stakeholder engagement, or community consultation.
  • Strong leadership, facilitation, and communication skills.
  • High-level organisational skills with experience providing administrative or secretariat support.
  • The ability to build trusted relationships across government, community, and partner organisations.

Desirable:

  • Knowledge of environmental management, water infrastructure, or cultural heritage programs.
  • Experience working in Aboriginal community-controlled organisations.
  • Familiarity with government funding agreements and reporting processes.

Why Join The Team?

This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of Country, culture, and environmental management, helping to protect Ngarrindjeri lands and waters for future generations.

You'll be part of a supportive, community-led organisation that values collaboration, respect, and cultural integrity, and plays a key role in influencing how government programs are delivered on Country.
