Who is the ACF?

When it comes to our environment, the Australian Conservation Foundation has been leading the way in protecting our living world for over half a century.

We are the national environment organisation committed to caring for Australia’s unique and beautiful wildlife and natural world. We’re inclusive, non-partisan and funded by the Australian community.

Whether it’s advocating for the Great Barrier Reef , koalas snoozing in big old trees or for strong climate action, our dedicated community of over 700,000 supporters are constantly working to create a world where forests, rivers, people, and wildlife thrive.

What’s the gig?

The Australian Democracy Network is creating a healthy Australian democracy which puts people and planet first. We bring people and organisations together to campaign for the changes that make our democracy more fair, balanced, transparent, accountable, and participatory. The ADN Campaigns Officer will work alongside our Campaigns Director and other team members to deliver our two major collaborative campaigns, #OurDemocracy, and Hands Off Our Charities. You can expect each day to be different, working across varied aspects of our projects and campaigns. The role will be a vital part of our ADN campaigns delivery team.

About you!

You want to come to work every day and make a difference.

You’re flexible and keen to learn, ready to turn your hand to whatever comes your way and would enjoy a role where you show up to work not quite knowing what the day might bring. You’re smart, pick things up quickly, give new things a go.

You’ll enjoy contributing your skills across a range of projects and tasks, supporting our team to deliver high impact campaigns every day.

Why work for us?

You’ll do important work with one of Australia’s most impactful organisations, and with our world-class organisational culture and great team, we guarantee you’ll have fun along the way.
