Very little is strictly required. But there are a few desirables.

I'd look hard at adding a suitable MSc, or even an MPhil, to your BSc [and you "actually" need the BSc, rather than "to all intents and purposes"]. This is certainly the biggest and most useful addition. I notice that you're in Australia, which may mean that you want to update to an honours degree first.

I'd also look at CRM trainer qualification.

Presumably you already have a CPL, if not you should.

Basic health and safety management is a very good idea, whatever is normal locally.



Apart from that, it will really come down to your experience and personal and professional reputation.
