The club fields generally have two paid avy patrollers, and a number of volunteer patrollers too. To volunteer, I believe they are generally looking for a stage 1 avy qual and some sort of advanced first aid, can't remember the name of the nz qual they wanted. Most of the club fields have websites with details of staff applications.
The terrain in BR and Craigieburn is fantastic. If it's your first trip over, expect a steep learning curve the first few days!
Ask James over on the backcountry forum of ski.com.au for advice about BR. (I'm pretty sure he's a BR member not craigieburn Jules)
