Congratulations, on taking the first step toward joining one of the Bathurst Region's largest employers! Bathurst Regional Council employs over 400 staff and provides a large range of services to our community.

Working for Council is a stimulating and rewarding career option, providing the opportunity to be part of a team contributing to shaping the success and future of our Region.

If you have never worked for local government, it is difficult to appreciate the diversity and experience that this environment provides to its employees. The community services that we provide include child care, waste services, library, Art Gallery, Australian Fossil and Mineral Museum, tourism services, Entertainment Centre and numerous recreational venues. Additionally, our main stream activities include planning, compliance, heritage, conservation, traffic management, water, waste water, construction (roads, roundabouts etc) and environment.

Local Government can provide many career paths. Local Government experience stands people in good stead for moving from one council to another.
