Hume City Council is one of Australia’s fastest growing and culturally diverse councils. We put the customer and our community at the centre of all that we do, ensuring our services are efficient and accessible.
In this role, your success won’t just be about what you design — it will be about how you get there.
We’re looking for someone who can build trust with stakeholders, listen deeply, and turn complexity into clear, achievable steps. You’ll know how to bring people on the journey, making them feel part of the process rather than just recipients of the end product.
From researching user needs to prototyping intuitive digital solutions, you’ll work in an agile way — breaking the work down, iterating as you go, and celebrating progress along the way. You’ll navigate competing priorities and the realities of local government with a positive, collaborative approach, always keeping the customer at the heart of every decision.
If you can connect with people, influence without pushing, and help turn big ideas into practical, well-loved solutions, we want to hear from you.
