Advice on Preparing Your Application
Casual Employment Register
Southern Midlands Council maintains an employment register to assist in filling casual employment opportunities in irregular and intermittent employment with us.
The register is used by Council to search for suitable candidates when a casual vacancy may arise. These casual positions are often required to be filled at short notice. Casual positions are intermittent with hours and working days varying dependent on the position requirements.
Casual employees may be required in the following departments within Council:- Outdoor works staff; cleaners; animal control; engineering / technical and administration.
If you wish to be included on our casual employment register, send your resume (including details of appropriate skills and qualifications) to mail@southernmidlands.tas.gov.au
Candidates may be contacted to assess their suitability & availability as employment opportunities arise.
The casual register will be advertised on an annual basis.
Council’s policy requires all permanent positions to be advertised in the Hobart Mercury so any people on the Casual Employment Register will need to keep an eye on the Positions Vacant section of the newspaper.
For any enquiries please contact Andrew Benson, Deputy General Manager on 6254 5050 or abenson@southernmidlands.tas.gov.au during business hours.
