Are you passionate about nature and curious about what a career protecting wildlife and the environment could look like? Come along and meet DBCA’s Parks and Wildlife staff to get a real behind-the-scenes look at their jobs. 

In this session we are focusing on roles within the forest environment. You’ll hear from our Nature Conservation Officer - Flora, Senior Research Officer in Remote Sensing, Regional Park Ranger, current Graduate and Fire Operations Officer. They’ll share their stories, and explain how they got started, and the pathways that led them to where they are today. 

You’ll also learn about the skills, and experiences you can gain through our graduate program and other opportunities that can help you follow a similar path. If you love nature and want to explore future career possibilities, join and you might just discover your dream job!
