We are seeking an experienced and motivated Land Management Coordinator to lead a small team of Land Management Technicians in delivering land management programs for the Rum Jungle Rehabilitation Stage 3a Project. The role is responsible for overseeing a range of activities including monitoring environmental metrics, revegetation, fire mitigation, and weed management, as well as preparing quality, evidence-based reports.

In return you will receive a competitive salary, 6 weeks annual leave, the opportunity to develop a rewarding career in the NT Public Sector and an opportunity to experience the uniqueness of working in the Territory.
