Forest and Wood Products Australia

The Australian forest and wood products industry offers a wide range of diverse career opportunities and pathways across science, technology, sustainability, manufacturing, engineering, design and land management.

As one of Australia’s most important renewable industries, the sector plays a vital role in producing sustainable materials used in everyday products such as housing, furniture, paper, packaging and flooring. Careers in the industry extend far beyond forestry, with opportunities available in environmental management, research, conservation, logistics, manufacturing, technology, marketing, communications and skilled trades.

From working in forest management and harvesting operations to designing innovative timber products or using advanced technologies in manufacturing and sustainability, the industry provides pathways for people with a broad range of interests and skills.
