MidCoast Council continues to invest in apprentices, graduates and trainees with a new round of exciting job opportunities opening for 2022.
Council currently has 45 apprentices and trainees and 6 graduates in the organisation and this year's round of job opportunities will boost those numbers further.
From 11 October there are 19 exciting career opportunities available. This suite is made up of five apprenticeships, 11 traineeships and three graduate positions from across the organisation, including apprenticeships in heavy vehicle mechanics, engineering fabrication and parks and gardens, as well as finance traineeships, civil construction traineeships, water and sewer traineeships and graduate positions in engineering and land use planning.
"We're excited to again be able to offer these fantastic career opportunities to our community," said MidCoast Council's General Manager, Adrian Panuccio.
"A career in local government is always a good move and to be able to help people, regardless of their age, where they come from, or previous work experience, to kickstart such a lifechanging career, is something we're really proud of."
This is the third year MidCoast Council has invested in the employment of apprentices, graduates and trainees. Over the last two years 38 apprentices and trainees and eight graduates have been able to start their career through the program.
"To be able to offer a large number of opportunities like this each year, is fantastic."
"Our apprentices, trainees and graduates have all made really positive contributions to their teams, the organisation and to their community and I can't wait to welcome the successful applicants from this year's recruitment."
A full list of available positions can be found on Council's website and applications close on Sunday 31 October.
Short listed candidates will need to be available to attend an interview in November.
As an equal opportunity employer committed to attracting and retaining quality staff, MidCoast Council encourages people of all ages, genders, backgrounds and levels of experience to apply.
"The roles on offer are equally relevant to people finishing school or deciding on a career choice, to those of a more mature age looking for a career change."
These job opportunities are part of Council's ongoing employment based training strategy which also includes a graduate program.
