Parks, beaches, sun and one of the fastest growing cities in New Zealand. Tauranga's population is tipped to double over the next fifty years. The challenges that come with rapid growth make Tauranga City Council an exciting and dynamic place to work.
We have an average of 450 staff working at Tauranga City Council in roles as diverse as wastewater engineers, library cataloguers, town planners and park rangers. We care about our city and enjoy working in an organisation that makes a real difference. Plus we get to enjoy the relaxed Bay of Plenty lifestyle.
Why settle for anything less than a supportive working environment just a stone's throw from the waterfront or a short drive to the surf. If you would like to be involved in making the best of our city and surroundings come and join us.

About Tauranga City
Tauranga is a city in transformation. The area of the city is 12,742 hectares. The landscape is dominated by the harbour, the long white beaches, the Kaimai mountain ranges and the volcanic cone of Mauao ('the Mount'). The city's population has doubled in the last 20 years to an estimated 105,000 and is expected to reach 144,000 people by 2021.
Of Tauranga's population, 16.1% identify themselves as Maori - higher than the national average of 14.7%. Many Maori are affiliated to one of three main iwi - Ngaiterangi, Ngati Ranginui and Ngati Pukenga. Increasing numbers of people in the 30-45 age bracket (often with children) are now choosing to live in Tauranga as a lifestyle choice.
Tauranga has a mild climate - the average temperature is 14.2C (average high 18.3C) - with about 2,400 sunshine hours per year.
