NRA Environmental Consultants is an independent privately owned Australian company, established in 1984, which has a reputation for providing high quality environmental services to a wide range of clients in both the public and private sectors.

We employ a team of dedicated environmental practitioners who use their expertise in natural resource management to provide practical solutions and positive outcomes for our clients.

As part of our continuing development we are seeking candidates for an Ecologist role in our highly motivated team of technical specialists. With offices in Cairns and Townsville, we offer the opportunity for the successful candidate to work in a relaxed tropical environment with a superb lifestyle in either office.
