Local government is a significant employer in Australia - particularly in regional areas - offering opportunities for employment across a wide range of occupations. This report on the profile of the local government workforce has been written to support the National Workforce Strategy developed for the Australian Centre of Excellence for Local Government (ACELG) by Local Government Managers Australia (LGMA) National Office, and should be read in conjunction with this strategy. This report provides a summary of key local government workforce data and identifies the most significant challenges and opportunities for local government to inform the future development of the Australian local government workforce. The report confirms that local government is an Australian powerhouse, punching above its weight in terms of its contribution to the nation's economy and social fabric, particularly in regional, rural and remote Australia.
