Overview
An exciting opportunity has arisen at Break O'Day Council due to the retirement of our Environmental Health Officer. We are seeking a skilled and proactive individual to take on this important role within our Development Services team. You'll be instrumental in maintaining public health and environmental standards, ensuring compliance with relevant legislation, and contributing to community well-being. This role offers a unique chance to step into a well-established position while making your own impact. We are open to exploring both employment and contracting options.

The person we are looking for.
