Central Highlands Regional Council offers a positive team environment with supportive colleagues and opportunities for professional growth through diverse work experiences. Employees appreciate the learning opportunities available through various projects and additional certifications, while some also highlight the competitive compensation and benefits package.
However, the organisation faces some operational challenges, including the need to improve certain management practices and staff support systems. The remote location presents practical challenges such as extensive travel requirements and higher living costs, while staff retention is affected by competition from the mining sector. Some employees also noted challenges with workload management and meeting timeframes.
