Andrew Hill has over 25 years' experience in the environmental field, having spent over 20 years as a Director / Principal Botanist. He has previously worked for other environmental organisations, and state and local government where he honed his expertise in flora and fauna issues throughout south-eastern Australia.

Andrew's specialty lies in flora surveys, environment impact assessments, botanical assessments under Victoria's Permitted clearing of native vegetation Biodiversity assessment guidelines, and developing environmental management plans.
