Full Job Description

Are you looking for a role where you can get outdoors, stay active and make a genuine difference in your community?

The National Fire Ant Eradication Program (NFAEP) is working to protect Queensland from one of Australia's most invasive pests. We're looking for motivated, reliable and community-minded people to join our team as Field Officers. This is a great opportunity to gain hands-on experience, build practical skills and contribute to work that protects our homes, wildlife, environment and industries.

About the role

As a Field Officer, you'll be part of a supportive team delivering surveillance, treatment and property-management activities across South East Queensland. Our teams cover a broad geographic area and operate from locations including Burleigh Heads, Berrinba, Wacol, Virginia, Laidley and Mutdapilly. Depending on operational needs and available vacancies, you may be based at one of these locations and work across the surrounding region. Your days will be varied and may include inspecting properties, applying bait treatments, speaking with members of the public and completing accurate field records.

This isn't a desk job. You'll spend much of your day outdoors and on your feet, working in a range of weather conditions and walking across different types of terrain, including uneven, steep or challenging ground. For people who enjoy being active, working outside and having variety in their day, this can be a highly rewarding role. We also know it won't be everyone's cup of tea, so we encourage you to consider whether the outdoor and physical nature of the work is a good fit for you.

What you'll do

Conduct visual surveillance and apply bait treatments to support fire ant management.
Visit and move safely around residential, rural, commercial and other properties.
Collect accurate information and complete daily reporting and recordkeeping.
Work outdoors in varied conditions and locations across South East Queensland.
Follow workplace health and safety procedures and contribute to a safe workplace.
Work collaboratively with your team to achieve shared operational goals.
Provide friendly and professional face-to-face service to property owners and members of the public.

What we're looking for

You don't need to know everything on day one. We're looking for people who bring a positive attitude, are ready to learn and take pride in doing a good job.

You'll be someone who:

is enthusiastic, dependable and comfortable working as part of a team
communicates clearly and treats people with respect
enjoys practical, active and outdoor work
can work safely in varying weather and across uneven terrain
is committed to accurate recordkeeping and following procedures
holds a current driver's licence
is willing to complete any required training and certifications.

Why join us?

You'll be joining a welcoming and purpose-driven team, with training and support to help you succeed. Most importantly, your work will contribute directly to protecting Queensland's communities, environment and way of life.

Applications to remain current for 12 months.
