Josh Gunn

With over two decades of experience in biodiversity conservation, Josh is currently the Operations Coordinator for the Natural Systems Team at the Shire, where he leads the delivery of a broad range of bushland services aimed at protecting and enhancing ecosystems on the Mornington Peninsula. His background is rooted in a deep interest in fauna, biology, and evolutionary processes, which continues to drive his work in the field. He is passionate about practical, on-the-ground conservation and the systems that support long-term ecological resilience. Outside of work, he recharges by surfing and traveling—both of which keeps him connected to the natural world and inspired by its diversity.
