NSW Biodiversity Lead …… join an organisation with a strong environmental ethos

Want to bring ideas to life?

You’re in the right place. We’ve been a leading design, engineering, and advisory company for decades. So why choose Aurecon? It really comes down to one, crucial question: what kind of world do you want to create for the next generation? Truth is that the decisions being made right now will determine the future of everything – from the local community to the sustainability of our clients’ businesses – to the entire planet. One of those decisions is: who do you decide to work for?

How will your ideas contribute to shaping what’s next?

With biodiversity loss cited as one of the biggest dangers the world faces, the race to protect the natural world and its biodiversity has reached a critical milestone. There is increasing pressure from government, shareholders, community, and NGOs to avoid, mitigate, and minimize environmental impacts and start to transition to nature-positive practice actively better.

Under the leadership of our new Head of Biodiversity, you will play a pivotal role in helping our clients avoid, mitigate, and minimize their impacts. As a subject matter expert, supported by a larger national practice you will work with a broad range of clients across NSW and be responsible for leading, developing & delivering fit for purpose biodiversity programs as well as advising on ecology legislation and policy review and development.

How will your future be shaped by us?

Joining Aurecon means you’ll be at the award-winning edge of innovation and sustainability. AFR ranked us Top 5 among sustainability leaders and Top 3 of all innovative companies in professional services. One Consult awarded us an innovative design award. Plus, we were Consult Australia’s large firm of the year.

You really can bring your whole self to work and be confident your voice will be heard. We don’t just claim we’re inclusive and innovative, as proven by the independent awards and accreditations we’ve gained. We’ve been recognised for our innovation culture, gender equality and our LGBTI+ inclusion. Plus, we have a robust Reconciliation Action Plan – our fourth edition since 2014.

On a personal level you’ll have access to flexible work hours, remote work, working holidays, part-time and job share options. When it comes to your development, you’ll be a part of our Advisory Development Academy, and have the option to build your technical mastery in the Aurecon Design Academy which earns you a Graduate Certificate in Design Management from the prestigious RMIT University. Plus, you’ll be supported on every step of your career journey with mentoring, leadership training and our Career Hub. Outside of work, you’ll be further supported with competitive paid parental leave, cultural public holiday swaps, plus wellbeing support programmes.

What are we looking for from you?

You’ll have a genuine passion for re-imagining problems and continuous learning to help shape the future.

We value that each of our team members brings something different to Aurecon. We look for people who have had a broad range of experiences throughout their career and can demonstrate how they have worked as part of a team to bring ideas to life.
