"What makes Rockhampton Regional Council so appealing to me is the flexibility available, good pay and job security. The working environment is friendly and allows for innovation and change.

I would recommend Council as it is a great place to work."

Ashleigh Lamb
Administration Officer
Commercial Services

"I love working for Council because the gardens are a pleasant place to work. A memorable moment for me was receiving awards for 25, 30 and 35 years service and completing my horticultural course."

Ian Woodward
Gardener
Community Services

"One of the reasons I like working in the Council is that you can actually make a difference and contribute to the quality of life of the community. Whilst it is fair to say that we do not always get things done the way we wanted, it is the fact that we had input on the way through, either by giving our ideas or advice or our efforts in planning, building or fixing the infrastructure that provides those necessary services to the community. One of the major benefits that I have experienced in working in local government is the existence of a strong level of teamwork and, I am glad to say, this is also evident in RRC and this will assist in that making a difference for the community."

Bob Holmes

"Rockhampton Regional Council is appealing due to there being a good variety of work, it is a good fit with my skills and experience and my coworkers are both friendly and knowledgeable. I find the Rockhampton Region appealing as I was already living in the area and enjoy the climate, fishing and ‘lifestyle’.

I would definitely recommend family and friends to apply for a job with Council as there is a large variety of work available and good conditions."

Michael Wakeham
Project Engineer
Commercial Services

"I have worked for RRC for over two years now and by taking an RDO each fortnight I have time out to recharge my batteries. I work with a great bunch of people, in a job that I absolutely love!"
