Project Manager - Freshwater Science

CSIRO, Australia

Updated: about 12 hours ago

Join CSIRO’s Integrated Freshwater Landscapes Team, part of the Managing Water Ecosystems Research Group, in a pivotal role supporting two high-impact initiatives – the newly proposed National Ramsar Hub and the Flow-MER reporting project. These projects sit within CSIRO’s Water Security Program, which delivers innovative science to support climate adaptation, environmental water management, and biodiversity protection across the Murray-Darling Basin.

As the Project Manager, you will act as a science communications leader and knowledge broker, and you will coordinate across CSIRO, the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW), and jurisdictional partners to deliver strategic work packages focused on Ramsar wetlands and environmental water outcomes. You will oversee the integration of project phases, facilitate stakeholder collaboration, translate complex scientific findings into accessible insights, and ensure alignment with national priorities. In the Flow-MER project, you’ll lead the production of high-quality, visually engaging reports that translate complex scientific evaluations into accessible insights for diverse audiences.

This is a unique opportunity to contribute to CSIRO’s mission in Future Water, Biodiversity, and Climate Monitoring – making a real impact in Australia’s most iconic freshwater landscapes. If you have a background in natural sciences, experience in science communication, and a real passion for connecting science with policy and practice, we would love to hear from you!
