As an integral member of a small team, your key accountabilities will include:

• Develop, amend and update carbon contracts: Work with a large number of contracts, predominately focused on property transactions e.g. change to landholders, mortgage discharges
• Preparing submissions for Government: Engage with ecologists to ensure EIH Consent forms are prepared with complete accuracy. Liaise with external entities, conduct ASIC/data searches, obtain consent from Native Title groups, and prepare progress updates
• Policy research: Over time, this role will grow to include monitoring market conditions and developing company wide responses

To be considered for these roles, you will demonstrate:

Technical Skills:

• Tertiary qualifications or demonstrated experience in law, conveyancing, business, or related discipline
• Understanding of general corporate and commercial law, contract preparation and property law
• Strong stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to form relationships and obtain information as required

Personal Attributes:

• A genuine interest in the environmental market, sustainability and innovative technology
• Ability to work with minimal supervision and to demonstrate initiative
• Confidence and focus to work on highly repetitive tasks
• A commitment to high work standards and exceptional attention to detail
• Critical thinking skills to be able to navigate problems with creative solutions
• Curiosity and courage to grow in uncharted territory

What you'll get in return

AIC are experiencing rapid growth, recently acquiring large International stakeholders, and you will have the opportunity to play a vital role in their development across the environmental sector.

In addition to contributing to interesting work, you'll join a team who truly value your professional development and provide a supportive environment to learn and grow.

AIC's office is currently based in Urrbrae, and will be moved to a more central location over time. In addition, there is flexibility to work from home and the organisation understands the importance of work/life balance.
