At Environment Southland, we actively work towards enhancing the experience of living and working in a sustainable region.

If you would like to be part of a team that is highly motivated and goal driven then you may be the person we are looking for!

You will work closely with the other members of the environmental data team collecting information to ISO9001:2008 standards from many environmental aspects including air quality, bio-monitoring, groundwater and surface water hydrology from many stunning places.

You will:

have a tertiary qualification in a relevant field, an eye for detail, a love of the great outdoors, and enjoy dealing with a wide range of people;

have the stamina to be part of our successful team of technical officers.

This is a job where you can expect the unexpected - your "inside office days" will be interrupted by floods, droughts and even the odd outbreak of sunshine as you undertake routine and emergency monitoring.

The position requires someone who is a team player, has the ability to communicate with a variety of people (scientific and non-scientific audiences alike) and can work effectively in a dynamic and high out-put environment.

In return, Environment Southland can offer you a dynamic and friendly working environment, access to a wide range of technology, training and support, and the chance to make a real difference to Southland's natural environment.

Beaches, ski fields, 4 out of 10 of NZ Great Walks, national parks, lakes and fiords are all a short journey from Invercargill. Combined with reasonable house prices, short commutes and a relaxed pace of life, it all makes Southland a great place to live and work.

An initial offer of remuneration will be made within the range $63,600-$67,000 per annum.
