In this position you'll take on a uniquely rewarding role managing the Moreton Island (Mulgumpin) and Heritage Parks Management Unit. As Senior Ranger for Mulgumpin you will be caring for lands owned by the Quandamooka People, who have voluntarily consented to a significant proportion of their lands being managed as National Park.
This role is about more than just park management—it's about partnership. The position requires an understanding of engaging with the First Nations Peoples and their interests relating to joint management of Gheebulum Kunangai National Park and should be able to demonstrate a well-developed understanding of working in land management and partnerships.

As a Senior Ranger Planning, you will have the chance to work in a stunning and inspiring environment while actively participating in efforts to safeguard the beauty and heritage of this unique region with our First Nation partners.
