'I started working for Hamilton City Council in 2001 after finishing my degree at Waikato University.  During my study years, I had heard good things about HCC and its reputation as a highly regarded organisation to work for. 

 

My first position in Council was in a customer service and administration role.  For the last four years I have been working as a Team Leader in the same unit, which I have thoroughly enjoyed. 

 

The next step in my career with HCC is a move to a Policy Analyst role, which I am excited to be starting very shortly.

 

I feel fortunate to have begun my career with Council.  I have had many opportunities to get involved across the organisation, to increase my skills and knowledge and progress my career. 

 

I also work with a great bunch of people who enjoy each other's company, and regularly get together for social activities.

 

Hamilton city offers a relaxed city lifestyle and HCC is a great place to work, especially if you are looking for a positive and healthy work/life balance and the opportunity to work in a diverse and vibrant local government environment.'
