Our Working Arrangements
All council roles are allocated to either a fixed, field, or flexible work style. Some roles are agile, enabling and empowering employees to maximise their performance and productivity while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Roles with a fixed work style work in a fixed permanent council location. Roles with a field work style are usually allocated where employees are required to be out working in the community with a minimum requirement for 'touch down' space at any council location. Roles with a flexible work style have a flexible base location to meet the needs of the business, allowing employees to work from a mixture of home or any council office, partner/client, or external location, as required to meet service requirements.
Please refer to the Job Description for further information on the work style assigned to the role you are applying for.
