This is a strategic and operational role where you’ll work closely with the Director, lead a diverse team, and deliver outcomes that directly shape community wellbeing, tourism, local economy, and small business development.

It’s a great opportunity for someone ready to take the next step. Whether you're already managing a small team or looking to move into a more senior, all-round role.

If this role sounds like the right fit but you don’t meet every single requirement, don’t let that hold you back. Our client is flexible and more interested in the person behind the resume.

$120,000 base salary + super (TRP ~$185,000)

Fully subsidised modern accommodation just minutes from work

Car and utilities allowances

3-year fixed term contract with potential to extend

Learning and development allowance to support your growth

Discounted gym and pool membership

A genuinely supportive team and community

A rare opportunity to drive big-picture community outcomes with the backing of a progressive Council

Key responsibilities:

Lead community services, tourism, events, and economic development

Support local businesses and drive economic growth

Oversee community programs, visitor services, and public events

Manage areas like NDIS coordination and pest management

Build strong partnerships with local stakeholders

Contribute to planning and delivery of Council priorities

What we’re looking for:

Local Government experience in community, tourism, or economic development

Tertiary qualification in a related field (e.g. community, business, tourism)

Confident team leader with strong communication skills

Collaborative, community-focused mindset

Current driver's licence

Experience in grants, events or partnerships is a bonus
