MINT Coordinator - Magnetic Island Turtle Clinic
Part-time (20 hrs/week Year 1) | 3-year funded role | Based on beautiful Magnetic Island

Are you passionate about sea turtles and ready to lead a team of dedicated volunteers in real conservation action? Magnetic Island Network for Turtles Inc. (MINT) is hunting for a hands-on, organised, and energetic MINT Coordinator to steer our turtle care clinic and community programs toward success.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Leading 20+ volunteers with clear, consistent training and support
• Managing daily turtle clinic ops - feeding, rehab, water quality, and releases
• Keeping the clinic shipshape and running smoothly
• Coordinating community education events and volunteer engagement
• Reporting progress, chasing funding, and representing volunteers at committee meetings
• Flexing with shifting priorities and stepping in wherever needed

What we are Looking for in You:

• You have a passion for wildlife rehab
• You need to be able to juggle people, turtles, and admin like a boss
• You need to be a natural leader and team player who communicates clearly
• You need to be highly organised, detail-obsessed, and can handle spreadsheets and reporting with ease.
• You’ve got a can-do attitude with a pinch of humour - tough days come with the job
• Experience with sea turtles, grant applications, or website tools is a plus, but if you don’t know it all, your enthusiasm and willingness to learn will be what matters
• Must have own transport on Magnetic Island?

Why Choose Us:

• Work on one of the most stunning islands while making a tangible conservation impact
• Join a passionate community-led project backed by the Great Barrier Reef Foundation
• Be the heartbeat between volunteers, the committee, and the turtles you help save

If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves, rally a team, and protect sea turtles with real on-the-ground action, we want to hear from you!
