Working here
Situated 1 ½ hours south of Sydney, Shellharbour is one of the fastest growing cities in Australia and is home to almost 79,000 people in a city that spans 154 square kilometres. It’s a place of great natural beauty – stretching west from the picturesque coastline to rolling pastures, against the majestic backdrop of the Illawarra escarpment.
We employ up to 450 permanent and temporary employees over a wide variety of services to our local community. We support our employees with career development and encourage a work/life balance that creates a sustainable lifestyle.
Our values and selection process
We are committed to employing staff who behave and act in accordance with our Core Values (Collaboration, Accountability, Integrity, Respect, Sustainability) and Core Corporate Behaviours, and provide exceptional service to our 4C’s (Community, Councillors, Customers and Council). Our values aren’t something we just promote – it is who we are.
We are an equal opportunity employer and use merit-based selection techniques during our recruitment and selection process. We will choose the applicant who best meets the criteria for the position.
