The Warkaku Minyma (Womens work) coordinator will take a lead role in developing and managing a new Women Rangers Work Program in Indulkana Community and linking to other women rangers across APY. This project is focussed on developing Land Management skills for Women Rangers whilst looking after country. You will need to be able to support women travel to cultural places that only women can visit. You will work closely with the training coordinator to support Women to gain both accredited training (Cert 2 Conservation and Ecosystem Management) and non- accredited skills. This position will work alongside a newly established Steering Committee drawn from the Community. It will require support for the development of a new Healthy Country Management Plan which will then provide ongoing guidance for the operations of the project. This position involves facilitating the use of both Indigenous ecological knowledge and contemporary Land Management practices. The position reports to the Program Manager through the operations coordinator.

This position will make a meaningful difference to women and families in the Indulkana community through creating employment. It will make positive change to empower individuals and hence families in community. At the same time the cultural and desert experiences will enhance your skills and understanding of a different world view. It is a role that fosters deep connections and learning as you immerse yourself in the oldest continuing culture and learn the rich history and ecology of the desert.

Initially the position will commence in Umuwa where the candidate will be inducted into the Land Management Programme, get to know the rest of the team and receive guidance and support to establish the new project. The ongoing position will be based in either Marla or Indulkana with a vehicle provided for commuting to work.
