Job board and talent platform connecting candidates with local government careers across Australia
Careers at Council operates a careers website for Australia's 537 councils, built by state and territory local government associations. The tech stack reveals heavy reliance on Microsoft infrastructure (Entra, Intune, Exchange, Active Directory), GIS and mapping tools (ArcGIS, QGIS, MapInfo), and public-sector standard HR systems (Kronos, Freshservice). Current hiring spans engineering, operations, construction, and planning roles—signaling the platform is scaling beyond pure talent acquisition into supporting the operational needs of councils themselves.
