This is an exceptional opportunity to make a very real contribution to the protection of Australia’s unique wildlife and their habitat.

Bush Heritage Australia is a leading conservation organisation, protecting our unique plants and animals and the habitats they rely on. Over the last 25 years, Bush Heritage has protected the habitat of over 200 species of native animals and plants threatened with extinction.

Cravens Peak Reserve is located in Western Qld, 470km south of Mt Isa. It is a leading conservation reserve that demonstrates the value of collaboration and partnerships that drive landscape-scale conservation, traditional owner alliances, scientific research, and meaningful community engagement. This reserve protects gibber plains, red sandy dune fields, semi-permanent waterholes, Coolabah woodlands, and one of the richest reptile assemblages on earth.

The function of the Reserve Manager is primarily to ensure that day to day management of Cravens Peak Reserve meets the conservation and organisational goals of Bush Heritage. Management of the Reserve occurs within the context of day to day implementation of the Cravens Peak Reserve Management Plan. You will be expected to represent and promote Bush Heritage in the region.

You will have a sound understanding of the principles of ecological and natural resource management, and experience in applying these principles. Amongst other attributes you will possess skills for managing land, plant and equipment, and supervising staff and volunteers in a remote bush environment.

If you have a passion for conservation and want to make a real difference in protecting our natural environment, then respond by addressing the key selection criteria outlined in the position description below and send your application with your resume to employment@bushheritage.org.au
