ENVIRONMENTAL JOBS IN DARWIN - NT
Here's a list of environmental jobs in Darwin. Each position advertised that is shown on on this page (and following pages) will be located in the metropolitan area of Darwin. If you are interested in finding out about sustainability opportunities in The NT that are outside of the Darwin metro area, then, when you pick a location, if you click 'ALL NT' this will broaden your job search to green career opportunities throughout the whole of The Northern Territory.
If you are interested in applying for a position then all the 'apply instructions' for the different environmental and sustainability jobs listed are in the body of the advertised position itself.
You can change the locations that display for these environmental and sustainability position adverts by scrolling up and selecting a different location in the 'Refine Search' box on the top left-hand side of this page.
What's also really useful is you can select multiple locations and environmental jobs types by using this 'Refine Search' box. For example, if you are interested in environmental jobs in both Sydney and Melbourne, it's possible to see these locations at the same time rather than in separate job searches.
Frequently Asked Questions
What environmental jobs are available in Darwin and the NT?
The NT has a particular focus on land and natural resource management. You'll find roles in land management and NRM, Indigenous ranger and caring-for-country programs, biodiversity and field ecology, fire and weed management, and environmental approvals — much of it remote or regional rather than city-based. There's also some environmental work tied to the Territory's mining and oil & gas sectors.
Are there ranger and land management jobs in the NT?
Yes — this is one of the NT's defining areas of environmental work. Indigenous ranger programs and land management roles are a significant part of the sector, often run through land councils and ranger organisations such as the Northern Land Council and Warddeken Land Management. These roles cover fire management, invasive species control, biodiversity monitoring and sacred site protection, and are central to caring for country across the Territory.
Which employers hire environmental professionals in Darwin?
You'll see roles from NT Government bodies (including the Parks and Wildlife divisions), land councils such as the Northern Land Council, research and education institutions like Charles Darwin University, and consultancies working on northern projects. The work skews towards land management, ecology and approvals.
