Here's a list of environmental jobs in Melbourne. Each position advertised that is shown on on this page (and following pages) will be located in the metropolitan area of Melbourne. If you are interested in finding out about sustainability opportunities in Victoria that are outside of the Melbourne metro area, then, when you pick a location, if you click 'ALL Vic' this will broaden your job search to green career opportunities throughout the whole of Victoria.
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.
A good spread. Common roles include ecology and flora/fauna assessment, environmental and sustainability consulting, contaminated land and remediation, water and catchment management, biodiversity advice on major energy and infrastructure projects, plus corporate ESG and climate roles and council-based environment positions. You'll see everything from graduate to management level.
National consultancies such as GHD, WSP, ERM and Arcadis hire steadily in Melbourne, and the city's strength in corporate sustainability means the big advisory firms — EY, Deloitte and KPMG — also recruit climate and ESG specialists here. State bodies include the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action, EPA Victoria and Parks Victoria.
Yes — Melbourne is one of Australia's strongest markets for corporate sustainability, ESG and climate roles, thanks to its concentration of head offices and advisory firms. If that's your area, it's well worth checking the Melbourne listings regularly, as these roles move quickly.
List your role with us and it goes straight to a community of environmental professionals and graduates across Victoria, rather than a general audience. Not enough applicants by your closing date? We'll extend the listing for free. See our Advertise with Us page or call 02 9999 5008.
