The opportunity
Join the Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) team at CSIRO, where we partner with all levels of the organisation to take personal accountability for safety.



We are a future-focussed team that provides innovative programs to enhance CSIRO’s wellbeing and safety culture.

We are seeking a HSE Advisor to support the Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness (ACDP) facility in Geelong.

The ACDP is a purpose-built biosecurity facility containing the largest and highest-level biocontainment (BSL-4) laboratory in the southern hemisphere. The ACDP laboratories and research teams help protect Australia’s general public and our multi-billion-dollar livestock and aquaculture industries, from exotic and emerging infectious disease threats and outbreaks, while also collaborating with world health and animal organisations and agencies.

As our new HSE Advisor, you’ll provide technical and practical support to research staff, affiliates, leadership teams and a range of other stakeholders, while collaborating with the broader, nation-wide HSE team. If you’re passionate about enhancing safety and well-being culture, excel
