Careers

I’ve worked with Australia’s Oyster Coast for five years at our Merimbula farm. When I started, all I knew about oysters was that I loved to eat them. Now, I love to grow them. Through hard work, study and the diverse opportunities AOC provides, I’ve grown into a manager’s position. AOC strives to create a better, safer and more enjoyable workplace, and it’s easy to forget you’re at work when you’re surrounded by the diversity of the estuary every day.

I've had the privilege of working with Australia's Oyster Coast for a little over 4 years in the position of Business Development Manager. The team's dedication to excellence and support for each other is truly inspiring. The inclusive environment allows me to thrive, even as a remote worker. I'm proud to be part of a team that values people and produces exceptional oysters.

For me, working for AOC has been the best career path I could have ever asked for. I have grown as a person and gained many valuable skills and qualifications that have helped me progress into a management role within the company. I love the outdoors and being able to work with nature. I feel lucky to work in such a beautiful environment with an amazing team to produce a world-class product.

I have been working at AOC for over three years and the best part about working at the company is the amazing culture, everyone that I have worked with is very friendly and welcoming. Also, the company truly values its employees and provides opportunities for growth and development.

Having worked at AOC for almost four years, I can confidently say that this experience has been incredibly rewarding. The supportive team environment has helped me thrive and develop my accounting skills. The opportunities for continuous learning and professional growth have been invaluable. I genuinely enjoy contributing to the financial health of our organisation. It’s fulfilling to be part of a company that values its employees and promotes a healthy work-life balance.

Since joining Australia’s Oyster Coast, I’ve been inspired every day by the synergy of nature, community and craftsmanship that defines this business. Leading our marketing and branding gives me the privilege of sharing our story, alongside a team that cares deeply about sustainability, quality and innovation. Every oyster tells a story, and I’m proud to be part of it.

I joined the team 3 years ago and, since then, I've been providing IT solutions for all aspects of this quite diverse and distributed organisation. Requirements such as farm management, provision of IT in remote locations, logistics management, factory management, inventory tracking and compliance have all been tackled by my small team in this time. It has been great to work for an organisation with a genuine commitment to innovation in its goal to constantly raise the bar as leader in our industry. I look forward to seeing what we can achieve in the coming years.

I joined AOC as their Operational Compliance Lead after a long career in the Fisheries and Marine compliance field within State Government regulatory agencies. The step across to private industry was a breath of fresh air, particularly working with a team of highly motivated individuals in a company leading the way in NSW aquaculture industry. The dynamic nature of AOC’s operations allowed for diversity in the role and an opportunity to constantly build and improve all operational aspects of the business. Never a dull moment.

Australia's Oyster Coast has been a fantastic place to work. The focus on excellence in oyster production, coupled with a supportive team environment, has made my time here truly enjoyable. I've gained valuable experience that will benefit me in my future career endeavours. I highly recommend Australia's Oyster Coast to anyone looking for a dynamic and fulfilling work experience in oyster farming.
