Working under the guidance of the Senior Research Scientist – Applied Entomology & Integrated Pest Management, Mildura, the position will undertake innovative research towards the development, evaluation and implementation of IPM tools and practices in different horticultural crops.

The broad scope for this position includes supporting the development of AST’s IPM research capability: pheromone trapping and monitoring insect pests in almond orchards, with a particular focus on Carpophilus truncatus; field and laboratory research on pest ecology, assessment of crop damage; pest management (biopesticides, biological control and crop hygiene); insect diagnostics; and, close liaison with industry. The position requires a methodical approach to scientific research, attention to detail, innovative thinking, entomological skills, experience in undertaking field trials, experience in stakeholder and industry engagement, and good inter-personal and written communication skills. This role is supported by a multi-year collaborative project involving the almond industry and government researchers in Victoria, New South Wales and South Australia and two commercialisation projects for insect lures across different horticultural crops.

The successful applicant will work effectively as a member of the Invertebrate & Weed Sciences Team, a multidisciplinary team of scientists within AST. The position is based at AST’s well-established laboratory and office complex at the Mildura SmartFarm, where the successful applicant will enjoy flexible working arrangements and undertake a wide variety of work across the division.
