Batley worked at the Australian Atomic Energy Commission for 12 years before being appointed to the CSIRO in 1981 where he was still employed in 2012. In 1996 he shared the CSIRO Chairman's Medal for his research team's work on the Port Phillip Bay Environmental Study. Batley was instrumental in developing the CSIRO's influential Handbook for Sediment Quality Assessment and has published over 350 highly cited publications.

Batley was awarded the following CSIRO medals:

1996 - CSIRO Chairman's Medal for Science and Engineering Excellence as a member of the Port Phillip Bay Environmental Study team (with team members including Graham Harris and David Fox), for their four-year Port Phillip Bay environmental study resulting in a model of the Bay system.

2006 - In 2006 Batley (team leader, with Stuart Simpson, Jenny Stauber, and colleagues) was awarded the CSIRO Medal for Research Achievement for research advancing the assessment and regulation of contaminants in aquatic sediments, involving revised assessment protocols, new toxicity tests, and improved frameworks, underpinning revised sediment quality guidelines and defensible management actions that are appropriately protective of Australia's benthic and aquatic ecosystems.
