HardyGroup International Executive Search and Recruitment | General Manager East Arnhem Region EAST ARNHEM REGION & NHULUNBUY The East Arnhem Region is one of the most remote regions in Australia, covering roughly 33,6000 sq km in the north-eastern corner of the Northern Territory. The region has a population of around 16,000 living in and around the main centre of Nhulunbuy and the major remote towns of Alyangula, Angurugu and Umbakumba (Groote Eylandt), Ramingining, Milingimbi, Yirrkala and Gapuwiyak. There are around 100 homelands and outstations. Nhulunbuy was created on the Gove Peninsula in the Northern Territory of Australia when a bauxite mine and deep-water port were established nearby in the late 1960’s, followed by an alumina refinery which closed in 2014. Rio Tinto still runs a small bauxite mining operation. The town now has a population of about 2,000, mainly direct and support employees, but there are many people who live in Nhulunbuy simply for the beautiful surroundings and lifestyle. Nhulunbuy is located on traditional aboriginal land within a mining lease area. HardyGroup International Executive Search and Recruitment | General Manager East Arnhem Region Nhulunbuy is a service hub for the more remote locations in the region, with services including education (pre-school, primary and secondary schools), health and law and order being delivered through a cooperative arrangement between the Northern Territory and the Australian Government. The region supports the fishing, mining and tourism industries. The Garma Festival is held annually as one of the largest celebrations of aboriginal culture. Nhulunbuy’s education services range from early learning centres to preschool, primary and high school.

  • Building a Medicare Local As Unique As the Territory Itself
    Building a Medicare Local as unique as the Territory itself Diane Walsh1, Andrew Bell1 1Northern Territory Medicare Local As I’m sure you will have all heard before… the Northern Territory is different…or at least that’s what we all like to think up there, so when presented with the opportunity to form a new primary health care organisation for the whole of the Territory, we started with the premise that a unique set of circumstances required a unique solution. In the Northern Territory Medicare Local, we believe we have created an organisation that will have the capacity to address the complex opportunities and challenges of our extraordinary region. The first and most obvious challenge is that it’s big. The NTML boundary covers a land area of more than 1.3 million km2, but the population is small. There are only five urban centres, with populations of 120,000 in the greater Darwin area, under 30,000 in Alice Springs 10,000 in the Katherine region, 5,000 in Nhulunbuy and 4,000 in Tennant Creek, plus a large number of remote and very remote communities varying in size from as small as 100 up to a few thousand. We are young, having the lowest median age in Australia...and we continue to maintain a population of more males than females. In comparison to the whole of Australia where the indigenous population is estimated to be less than three per cent, approximately 30% of the population is Aboriginal. Thirty per cent of the Aboriginal population live in areas officially classified as outer regional and remote.

In recent times there have been a growing number of major resource developments and commercial activities taking place on Aboriginal land. These include: • minerals and energy exploration projects; • infrastructure relating to railway, gas pipeline and army training areas; • national parks; • a significant increase in residential and commercial lot leasing; • enhanced natural resource management; and • pastoral activities. The NLC operating environment is unique, and it is important that the organisation continually adapts to support and foster new and innovative projects and developments that will underpin prosperity in remote Aboriginal communities.
