Position Announcement: Reef Check Australia Seasonal Project Officer,
South East Queensland
Reef Check Australia is a not-for-profit organization dedicate to
protecting Australia's coral communities through scientific research
and community engagement. We train recreational divers in coral
health survey methods so that they are able to participate in
volunteer survey teams on more than 80 research sites on the Queensland coast.
The Project Officer position will involve the planning, coordination
and leadership of Reef Check Australia research teams to monitoring
sites in the South East Queensland (SEQ) region from May to November
2010. This role will also include data management, analysis and the
creation of a scientific report. Additional responsibilities subject
to interest may include fundraising, event coordination, education
and grant writing.
The RCA SEQ project works with a dozen dive operators to reach more
than 25 monitoring sites ranging from Noosa to the Gold Coast. Good
communication, motivation, delegation and social skills are essential
to coordinate this collaborative community network. Minimum Rescue
Diver certification is required for the position. However, an insured
divemaster or instructor is preferred.
The position is entirely voluntary. However, if you can identify
potential grants that could provide you with a source of funds we are
happy to assist you with an application.
