Drive performance and innovation across Council services in a connected, growing region

About our Shire

Greater Hume Shire - located in southern New South Wales, on the Victorian border and adjoining the Council areas of Wagga Wagga, Albury, Federation, Lockhart, and Snowy Valleys. Welcoming towns and villages intersperse the Shire – Culcairn, Henty, Holbrook, Jindera and Walla Walla are the main centres with many villages. They play a key role in servicing productive rural industries of mixed farming enterprises, primarily grazing of beef, lamb and wool production, and grain production of wheat, oats barley and canola. There are forestry resources based mainly in softwoods plantations in the eastern sector of the shire. Boutique wine and olive oil also feature as emerging industries.

The Position

You'll need strong financial and organisational management skills, along with the ability to engage constructively with councillors and provide sound, balanced advice. Equally important is your capacity to build trust with staff, foster a positive workplace culture and represent the Council with confidence and credibility to government, business and the wider community.

You will bring:

  • Tertiary qualifications in business, management or leadership, or equivalent relevant experience
  • Proven experience in senior leadership roles, including oversight of teams, budgets and operational performance.
  • Ability to work constructively with Councillors, community members and external stakeholders, providing clear and considered guidance.
