Council is inviting anyone who has almost finished school (or their parents), career advisors and those who are looking for a new start to come along to our Cadet and Trainee Information Session.
The information session is on 21 September at 6pm over Zoom. We will have supervisors explaining the different trainee and cadet positions and answering questions.
The Cadet and Trainee program gives you the chance to earn and learn, gaining valuable on the job experience while you do your studies. Council pays 100% of course fees and costs associated.
We have roles across Council including a Cadet Town Planner, Cadet Building Surveyors, Cadet Project Accountant, Trainee Gardeners, Trainee Administration and Trainee Water and Sewer.
Liam O’Grady, now Council’s Digital Service Delivery Officer, started his career with Council as an administration trainee. Liam said that he loves his job because he is always learning.
‘I didn’t want to go to university, but I was able to study a Certificate IV in Business Administration while working here at Council,’ said Liam.
‘Our Learning and Development team helped me along the way to make sure I was keeping up and were very supportive.’
‘It was also an opportunity to pick up-on-the-job experience.’
‘I have now moved into a role that is responsible for providing and managing Council’s digital devices. I really like working for Council because I get to see the work that I do have an impact on the community and the staff members that work here.’
