Christchurch, New Zealand Antarctica New Zealand Full time

**Who are we?**

At Antarctica New Zealand, we aim to ensure that Antarctica and the Southern Ocean are valued, protected and understood. Our role is to support world-leading science and environmental protection and to raise public awareness of the global significance of the continent and surrounding Southern Ocean.

Antarctica New Zealand is redeveloping the iconic Scott Base, to support New Zealand’s enduring presence in Antarctica and the Ross Sea for the next 50 years. The new base will continue to facilitate world-leading science and better support local and deep-field science with improved efficiencies. Not surprisingly, construction in Antarctica is not straight forward, and the safety of people and the protection of the environment are paramount.

**The role**

Effective environmental management and adherence to the Comprehensive Environmental Evaluation (CEE) is essential for the success of this project. The CEE forms both the environmental impact assessment and the permit for the SBR project in Antarctica. This role links with the Policy, Environment and Safety Team to deliver outstanding environmental leadership, management and advice to the SBR Project team.

Key responsibilities include:

- Provide technical environmental leadership and support to contractors/construction staff implementing environmental controls to minimise the impacts of SBR in Antarctica.
- Support the integration of Antarctica New Zealand’s Environmental Management System (EMS) within SBR.
- Support the implementation of Green Star and ensure both Design and As-Built accreditation are achieved.
- Support the development of and review the SBR Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) in close cooperation with the contractor(s), and support the contractor’s implementation of the CEMP to minimise environmental impacts in Antarctica.
- Provide technical environmental expertise and support New Zealand’s implementation of the Antarctic Treaty System in the context of the SBR Project.
- Travel to Antarctica for approximately four weeks per annum to oversee environmental monitoring. This requires being certified medically fit by Antarctic New Zealand's medical assessor. There is a requirement to have up to date COVID-19 and influenza vaccinations and be in good health.

**What will you bring?**
- A degree in a relevant science field or environmental management
- Ideally, trained as a Greenstar Accredited Professional
- Environmental management experience on construction projects
- Experience in developing and implementing Environmental Management Plans for construction projects
- Experience in Environmental Impact Assessments
- Excellent written and oral communication skills
- A team-based attitude with a solution focused approach to challenges and issues.
