Every year, Eurobodalla Council offers on-the-job learning opportunities for locals through its youth employment training scheme.
"We want to give Eurobodalla's young people valuable career experiences without having to leave the shire," said manager of people capability Trinity Ladmore.
Council is currently offering two traineeships for people under 21, over a duration of two years. Trainees will rotate between Council's Human Resources and Infrastructure Support teams.
Ms Ladmore said working for Council is a great way for school leavers to gain valuable workplace experience.
"It's a win-win to earn money while you study and experience different career options," Ms Ladmore said.
Trainees earn between $1,349 and $2,482 per fortnight, while studying a Certificate III Business in the first year and Certificate IV Business in the second.
Trainees develop valuable skills, setting themselves up for future employment, either with Council or in other government or business sectors. The traineeships also serve as an alternative pathway into university, with ATAR equivalency.
Applications for Council's youth traineeships close Tuesday 3 February 2026.
Open to all ages, an apprenticeship in Council's waste team as a plant operator/labourer is back on offer with applications closing Monday 2 February 2026.
