Senior Project Officer – Agriculture Climate Adaptation

Senior Project Officer – Agriculture Climate Adaptation Position overview
The Senior Project Officer, Agriculture Climate Adaptation, works under the direction of the Team Lead, Agriculture Climate Adaptation, and as part of the Agriculture Section.

Climate change is exacerbating our current risks and creating new ones.
Australian farmers need to consider long-term trends in the climate when making decisions about infrastructure development, the suitability of land for certain crops or livestock when making investment decisions, farm business succession, and adaptation of farming systems.
Australian farmers need to continue to adapt to climate change.
Mitigation alone is not enough to stop the impacts of climate change from increasing.

The Senior Project Officer, Agriculture Climate Adaptation, leads projects and activities that aim to have real impacts on the agriculture sector by raising the awareness, knowledge, and skills of farmers/producers to continue to take action to adapt to a changing climate.

The successful candidate will contribute as part of a multi-disciplinary team and collaborate with delivery partners and customers to develop and implement impactful solutions for the Agriculture Sector.
