Work Experience 

At the Town, we believe in nurturing the next generation of local government stars, and that starts with our work experience students. 

Our tailored program offers a hands-on, insightful look into local government and the Town. Whether you're curious about planning, communications, sustainability or something else entirely, you’ll be matched with meaningful projects that align with your interests. You’ll have the chance to innovate, contribute, and leave your mark.

During your time with us—whether it’s a school term or a three-month placement—you’ll build real-world skills, gain confidence in a dynamic environment, and connect with passionate professionals who are here to support your journey.

Ready to get started?
Submit your expression of interest below. You’ll complete a short questionnaire, and our People & Culture team will work with the relevant department to confirm availability and ensure the placement suits your goals.

We can’t wait to meet you.
