Parramatta, Australia Parramatta City Council Full time

The City of Parramatta is going through unprecedented change and transformation as it becomes Sydney’s Central City. The intensity of growth and investment in City of Parramatta means that Council, their partners, and community have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to shape the City’s future and ensure it is culturally, socially, environmentally, and economically sustainable.

City of Parramatta’s Community Capacity Building team is seeking to fill two Project Officers positions with the team:

- One full-time role working across multiple portfolios; and,
- One part-time role, 3-day equivalent, focussing on Council’s Disability Inclusion Action Plan.

The positions are ideally suited to individuals who are passionate and committed to social justice and thriving communities, are keen to learn and support the work of an equally passionate and committed team.

City of Parramatta’s Community Capacity Building team works with internal stakeholders and community-partners to deliver outcomes that contribute to resilient and thriving communities in Parramatta. The team focuses on multiple portfolios such as socio-economic inclusion, Young People, Disability Inclusion, Homelessness, Prevention of Domestic & Family Violence, Social Investment and First Nations. The team’s work is dynamic and varied, stretching from capacity building through events and workshops to supporting systemic change through advocacy and policy work.

Both positions require experience in community development or related fields along with demonstrated understanding of social determinants of health and capacity building, project management skills, strong communication and interpersonal skills, analytical and problem-solving skills, and the ability to work independently.
