Council would like to hear from First Nations people who are interested in volunteering to work with our First Nations Fire Officer. Applicants must be a minimum of 16 years of age.
The volunteers will work as part of a team planning and preparing site to deliver cultural burns on Council reserves.
The main duties include inspecting sites and determining burn regime requirements; preparing sites using hand tools and light plant to create fire breaks, reducing fuel loads and protecting parent trees; and attending burning days as observers, participating as directed by the Burn Controller.
Applicants must be a minimum of 16 years of age.
For more information, please call Council on (07) 4970 0700 or email info@gladstone.qld.gov.au
