Hello fellow Australian Geodesy colleagues,

 

We are seeking interested applicants to be the next Director of National Geodesy at Geoscience Australia. This is an awesome role, working with amazing people. We are looking for someone dedicated to strengthening Geodesy in Australia with opportunities to guide and influence the recognition of importance of geodesy across government, industry and academia.

You will work closely with other Directors across the Positioning Australia Branch and Geoscience Australia more broadly to ensure quality and integration across new and existing products and services, and to maximise Positioning Australia’s relevance to its stakeholder base.

 

Among the many exciting geodesy activities currently underway, the Geodesy Director is responsible for:

-          Strengthening, maintaining and improving access to the Australian Geospatial Reference System
