Are you passionate about nature and interested in a career protecting our wildlife and environment? Come and meet some of our Parks and Wildlife staff to discover what their jobs are really like, from conservation work, fire management to caring for our national parks. You’ll hear their stories, explore the pathways that led them into their roles, and discover the skills and experiences that helped them succeed, including those gained through our graduate program. We’ll also head outdoors to try some hands‑on activities and experience a taste of the work they do in the field.

If you love nature and want to explore future career opportunities in this space, join us at the PHDC, you might just discover that this is the path for you. Light refreshments provided.
