About Us

CouncilJobs is the oldest specialist online recruitment resource for Councils, having started in 1999. We are a small Australian owned and independent company without links to any large corporation or industry group. For you, that means our only objective is to find you the right opportunity or jobseeker.

We Work for Councils

With our database of council-ready candidates, we deliver your job posts to the most relevant jobseekers with the right qualifications for the job. Our talent pool features thousands of current and former council staff and private subscribers. We are constantly working to reach more and more subscribers to ensure you find the perfect candidate for every job.

Within an hour of every job you post, we send an alert to every relevant subscriber with a Flash Alert. Rather than waiting for a jobseeker to look for you, why not reach out to them? At CouncilJobs, we do just that.

We also send a summary email each week; in case you’ve missed anything. CouncilJobs Weekly keeps thousands more up to date each week with a full summary of all jobs available to share easily with friends and family.

Throughout all of this, you can easily get in touch with us for support and assistance. We exclusively work with Councils, so we know what you expect. We’re committed to ensuring you the most out of every job you post with us.
