We are currently recruiting for a Biodiversity Coordinator to lead the delivery of our key biodiversity projects, including supporting the urgent recovery of our Giant Freshwater Crayfish and assessing regional populations of the Australian Grayling to better understand appropriate recovery initiatives.
Key responsibilities include:
- Community engagement to encourage participation in project opportunities to protect the habitat of our priority threatened species
- Facilitating and supporting landholders to deliver on-ground works to protect habitat and natural values
- Planning and delivery of new initiatives that align with our NRM Strategy’s biodiversity outcomes
