Environmental Sustainability Manager

As a public health service, the Southern NSW Local Health District (SNSWLHD) is committed to protecting and promoting the health of our communities and our organisation. We recognise that climate change will likely have impacts on the health of our community and we therefore have a responsibility to both prepare our organisation for these impacts and to reduce our organisation’s greenhouse gas emissions.

Supporting the SNSWLHD in being recognised as an environmentally sustainable organisation, primarily through managing strategies and initiatives to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions.

Leading the LHD’s understanding of the health and service risks and impacts of climate change and identifying measures to help mitigate and adapt to climate change.

Coordinate the leadership of the collaborative development, planning, implementation and measurement of actions to support local and NSW Government plans and policies in relation to Environmental Sustainability, and notably in enhancing its efficient use of resources in relation to electricity, fuel, water, and its production of waste is a key function of the role.
