About Georges River Council
What is Georges River Council?
Georges River Council serves southern Sydney — Hurstville, Kogarah, Mortdale and the suburbs along the Georges River. Around 640 staff deliver planning, compliance, libraries, sustainability, governance, early learning and open-space services.
Where will I work?
Mostly from Hurstville, close to the station and major transport links, with hybrid working on many professional roles.
What is the Georges River team like?
Compliance auditors, sustainability and governance officers, librarians and IT specialists, grants and project officers, alongside bushcare and early-learning teams.
Work-Life Balance
Role after role carries the same headline bullet — "Enjoy a 9-day fortnight" — on compliance, sustainability, bushcare and information-access positions, and the library-technology ad spells out the maths: "70 hrs per f/night". Thirty-five hours a week across nine days, with hybrid working on top.
