The proposed hours are nominally up to 40 hours per week and may vary a little to suit the project workload. The roles are based in Cairns, however some work away in regional or remote locations may also be required depending on requirements. Preference given to someone already living in the region or someone willing to relocate, however, FIFO and/or DIDO will definitely be considered.
Due to compliance, local knowledge, time constraint requirements, you must already be living in Australia, have the right to work in Australia, with well-developed interpersonal and consultative skills and a current driver's license.
