Ensuring the Western Bay retains a unique mix of lifestyle, professional opportunities and community spirit is something everyone in the district takes an interest in, especially the team at the Western Bay of Plenty District Council.
Council’s operations team – made up of some 150 professionals – has established a reputation as being one of the top performers in local government. This hard earned status has been built by a team of industry experts, many of whom have been responsible for developing and implementing projects that have been adopted throughout Australasia. Whether its transportation, utilities, quality management or performance improvement, our staff are regarded as industry leaders.
To stay at the top of our game we recognise the importance of attracting and retaining the best people so we remained focussed on offering staff flexibility, choice and value through their employment relationship with Council. Above all, our people get to live in one of the most sought after lifestyle locations in New Zealand. If you’re interested in growing your career in local government we’d like to hear from you.
