Aquaculture Technical Assistant careers

An Aquaculture Technical Assistant supports the breeding and harvesting of fish, shellfish, and other aquatic organisms. You might work on an inland fish farm, a coastal hatchery, or a marine research station. You’ll focus on monitoring water quality and maintaining optimal conditions for stock health. You’ll perform routine feeding, operate specialised equipment, and collect biological data to assist in improving production yields and sustainability.

Aquaculture Technical Assistants play a vital role in Australia’s sustainable food industry. You’ll need to be physically fit and observant, with a keen interest in marine biology. You’ll liaise with farm managers and research staff to ensure stock are thriving and that the facility adheres to strict environmental and biosecurity regulations.
