You will help to plan and deliver a range of research and reporting projects to improve the delivery and understanding of the fuel management program. You will work closely with staff to improve the measurement and inclusion of ecological values in planning operations for bushfire management.

This role is well suited to someone who enjoys using their stakeholder engagement skills and working collaboratively, communicating ideas, and having a future focus in your critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
