- Support Council to deliver exceptional results for the community’s parks and open spaces

Located just 15 kilometres north-west of the centre of Melbourne, Hume City Council is one Australia’s fastest growing and most culturally-diverse communities. You will be joining a Council that is genuinely committed to making the lives of their community better through innovation, leadership, the delivery of quality services, and a highly skilled workforce that is focused on achieving the very best for the Hume community.

Reporting to the Director of Infrastructure and Assets, the Manager City Parks and Open Spaces will bring a fresh strategic approach to Council’s city parks and open space services to ensure they are delivered to the highest standards for Hume. Working with a passionate team and engaging broadly across the organisation and the community, you will lead the effective management of the department in a growth municipality with a huge diversity of open space, sports fields, park assets and streetscapes.

Key to your success will be your ability to balance the strategic and operational objectives of your role, as well as your excellent people and contract management skill sets. With demonstrated experience in leading multi-disciplinary teams, you will have the ability to work as a senior member of an established and high-performing organisation, ensuring an engaged culture and high-level of quality in project outcomes. With tertiary qualifications in a relevant field, the lived experienced you bring to the role and your continued focus on safety, culture, and outcomes will be paramount to the success of your team.

This role is an exciting opportunity to be a part of a visionary team committed to demonstrating inspirational leadership and championing the vision of a sustainable, vibrant, and community-oriented municipality.
