Work or Volunteer for Council

The Gannawarra Shire Council is a great place to work or volunteer. With a diverse range of occupations and volunteer opportunities the Shire offers a rewarding and supportive environment in which to work and contribute to our community.

We foster a culture that is professional, harmonious, enjoyable, productive, safe and equitable for all. We do this through:

• Shared understanding about work objectives/expectations

• Respectful behaviour

• Flexible work practices that allow staff/volunteers to achieve a balance with their non-work/volunteer life

• Recognition and celebration of achievements

In addition to this we provide a range of workplace activities/opportunities such as:

• Training and professional development

• Health and fitness information and support

• Participation in charity fundraising events

• Participation in the meals on wheels program

• Support for participation in volunteer emergency services or armed forces reserves

• Participation in community celebrations such as Reconciliation Week events

  As an organisation we are committed to equity and will ensure that all workplace employment matters such as recruitment and selection, promotion, training and pay and conditions are free from any form of discrimination.
