8 months ago, from Carbon Link Operations
Carbon Link is Australia’s largest soil carbon developer and is rapidly growing; we work with Australian farmers to improve farm productivity & performance through the adoption of practices that enhance soil health and can generate carbon credits.
At Carbon Link, our values guide our behaviour and are the foundation for how we do business:
We believe in and value:
* Excellence in science, technology, and innovation
* Contributing positively to a sustainable future
* Genuine and additional abatement

About the Role
We are currently looking for a talented and driven Carbon Farming Advisor to join our team, developing and managing a large portfolio of Carbon Farming projects across Australia. This role requires a “People Person” to work directly with Primary Producers to source and develop successful carbon farming projects under the Emissions Reduction Fund (ERF).

You must be a self-starter, highly motivated, and committed to our long-term mission to enhance farm productivity, improve soil health, and sequester carbon across agricultural landscapes.
Opportunities in this market are continually evolving, so you will need to be quick to learn, adaptable, and able to manage competing priorities. You will be supported by a diverse and geographically distributed team, so you will need to be an inclusive, respectful, and supportive team player with exceptional communication skills.

* Correctly storing and maintaining project records and data
* Assisting with project compliance and administration
* Contributing to the development of business systems and workflows
