To be successful in the role, you will also have:

• Ability to build sustainable relationships with the traditional owners of K'gari, the Butchulla People, and key stakeholders in management planning.
• Ability to lead and work as part of a team and contribute to an inclusive, diverse and respectful workplace.
• Strong communications skills and the ability to coordinate a work program.
• Strong problem solving and resolution skills.
• Experience in protected area management and fire management.

• Join a supportive high-performing team with a positive culture and inspiring leadership!
• Enjoy fantastic flexibility, benefits, work life balance, significant development opportunities!
• Work where you can truly engage your values and sense of purpose to safeguarding the environment for Queenslanders.
• You'll experience so much here. For most of us, it starts with our wonderful people and the rich, diverse perspectives they bring. They're dedicated, passionate and curious professionals. We're all different, and those differences are what make us great.
