Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority Full time

Overview
The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (the Reef Authority) is a Commonwealth non-corporate entity and a statutory agency established by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Act 1975 (Marine Park Act). Our objective is the long-term protection, ecologically sustainable use, understanding and enjoyment of the Great Barrier Reef for all Australians and the international community through the care and development of the Marine Park.
Managing a reef roughly the size of Italy demands many skills and talents, so you don't have to be a marine biologist to contribute to our mission. From finance to marketing roles, we have a team almost as diverse as the ecosystem we protect. We are looking for individuals who can bring their unique skills, experience, and knowledge to our high-performing and inclusive organisation.
The Position
The Reef Authority manages the assessment and compliance with Marine Park permissions required under the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Zoning Plan 2003. Permissions are required for various commercial, tourism, research, education and other activities within the Marine Park. This position assists in the management and delivery of the Marine Parks permission compliance program, including management of compliance with Environmental Management Charge (EMC) obligations. EMC applies to most commercial activities, including tourism operations, non-tourist charter operations, and facilities operating under a permit issued by the Reef Authority. For most tourism operations, visitors are liable to pay the charge to the permit holder, who remits the charge to the Reef Authority. Permit holders then lodge quarterly tourism visitation data (logbooks) through EMC Online.
The role works closely with internal compliance and application assessment teams, external government agencies and the tourism and reef research industries to support positive compliance outcomes. It also involves managing reef-wide desktop and field audits across all Marine Park permission types, preparing official correspondence (such as advisory letters and audit reports), and researching and analysing reports of non-compliance relating to permit compliance.
