About Us:
At MacDonnell Regional Council (MRC), we're proud to call the heart of Australia our home.

Our workforce reflects the rich cultural diversity of our region, with 78% of our team being Aboriginal. We honour and respect the traditions and perspectives of our community, so understanding Aboriginal culture—or a willingness to learn—is essential.
Who We're Looking For:
Are you seeking your next opportunity and one that thrives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment? Do you love being the go-to person for helping the communities and solve complex problems? If so, we'd love to hear from you!
Ready to Apply?

Applications will remain open until we identify the ideal candidates for our currently available positions.
Important Information
To be eligible for employment, you must have valid Australian working rights. This includes Australian citizenship, permanent residency, or a valid work visa.
The filling of positions are intended to constitute a special measure under section 8(1) of the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 (Cth), and s57 of the Anti-Discrimination Act 1997 (NT). Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander applicants will therefore be given priority consideration and preference in selection if they meet all essential selection criteria and are suitable at the level of the position.
