This year, our dedicated team worked tirelessly to make a meaningful environmental impact for the benefit of both people and nature. From large-scale restoration and seed production, to launching initiatives to reduce our carbon footprint and promote sustainable practices, our people are driving positive change for the planet. Together, we are making strides toward a greener and more sustainable future.

In May 2023, we ran our company-wide employee survey with an 87% participation rate. We maintained an overall engagement score of 72%.

Work/life balance and flexibility continue to be important to our people. By embracing hybrid working and bringing in initiatives such as ‘No Meetings Fridays’ we saw an 11-point increase in our work/life balance score.

In December 2022 and March 2023 we held events for our leadership team focused on creating community, connection and common language. With hybrid working becoming the norm, these moments to connect and share priorities and challenges are essential to building a cohesive team.

Staff perspectives

Starting out: 6 months tenure

“I’m dedicating my skills, time and energy to supporting smart, passionate people who make real and lasting change right across the country. It’s a bonus that so many of these people are not only dedicated to their work but also warm, approachable, and know how to have a good laugh.”

Andrew Powell, People and Culture Administrator

Long serving: 25 years tenure

“I feel grateful to do what I do. I started at Greening Australia as a seed collector … In my first year, I was involved in a large restoration project near Hoxton Park. Over 25 years, I’ve seen this site grow from seed into trees, from which we now harvest seed. It’s rewarding to conserve the genetic diversity of seed from remnant sites and feed this back into habitat restoration.”

Dave Warren, Senior Program Officer – Seed Services
