Weddin Shire Council offers a wide variety of career opportunities. Our diverse workforce is made up of more than 50 different professions; both indoor and outdoor roles as well as roles that have a mix of both. We are always looking for enthusiastic and skilled people to join our team.

The work that we do has a direct impact on our local community; Weddin Shire Council provides the essential facilities, services and infrastructure our people value. Our team is committed to delivering the best possible service to the residents, businesses and visitors of Weddin Shire and striving to achieve our shared vision for the future, together.

It is our wonderful community that is the biggest benefit to working with Weddin Shire Council. Our operations are based in Grenfell, a small yet vibrant country town located within two (2) hours' drive of Canberra, Dubbo, Bathurst, Orange and Wagga. The surrounding villages of Bimbi, Caragabal, Greenethorpe and Quandialla are steeped in heritage and overflowing with character. The people of these places come together with those spread out on rural properties between them to make up our friendly and supportive Weddin community. We encourage our staff to immerse themselves in the community and participate in the many activities and social events our Shire has to offer. Working with us is the ideal opportunity to combine a dynamic professional environment with a refreshing rural lifestyle.
