Working within Council

Here at Whangārei District Council, we take genuine pride in having one of New Zealand's most welcoming and supportive work environments, with the awards to prove it. We continually strive to provide the best working environment for our people. Part of this satisfaction comes from knowing we make a difference with the work we do. Our organisation is small enough for independent work to be valued, and big enough to make an impact within our community.

We also proudly offer additional ‘on the job' benefits in the form of:

• Health Insurance
• Life Insurance (2 x base salary)
• Supported learning and development opportunities

Living in Whangārei District

Whangārei is a district on the rise. It is Northland's only city and largest commercial centre. Nestled between forest clad hills at the heart of the beautiful Whangārei Harbour, nowhere in the district is more than 40 kilometers away from our spectacular coastline and commuting to WDC's CBD location is a breeze.

This is an exciting time for the District, with a growing population and new developments in Whangārei City. We take our reputation as a lifestyle destination very seriously, and there's a lot to make you ‘Love it Here!'
