Working at Clarence Valley Council

Our goal is simple. We want Clarence Valley to be a community full of opportunity. We know that starts with our people.

Located in the heart of the Northern Rivers, the Clarence Valley is a special place to call home. With over 100km of stunning beaches, national parks and 60 unique towns and villages to enjoy, we’ve got a massive backyard to look after.

As one of the region’s largest employers, we provide the job security and career opportunities of a large organisation, with the warmth and connection of a local team.

We’re currently working on some big plans to make the Valley even better by 2036, and we need people who are ready to roll up their sleeves and be a part of something truly important.

Your opportunity

Council is seeking an Asset Management Officer with a passion for working with data and systems to drive better decision-making and continuous improvement. If you are someone who thrives on organising, analysing and improving the quality of information, and you are keen to learn how that applies to the management of Council's infrastructure, we would love to hear from you.

The position is responsible for managing asset data and asset management activities for an assigned infrastructure portfolio, such as Transport, Water and Sewer, or Open Spaces and Facilities. You do not need a background in engineering or infrastructure: what matters most is your ability to work with data confidently, think analytically, and engage collaboratively with a range of stakeholders. We will provide the asset management context if you bring the curiosity and capability.

Working closely with asset owners, project managers, operations staff, finance staff and the IT & Systems team, the Asset Management Officer will ensure asset information is accurate, reliable and supports data-driven decision making and service delivery outcomes.

The position plays an important role in improving Council's asset management maturity through better use of asset management systems, improved data governance, lifecycle planning and the implementation of asset management improvement initiatives.

People with backgrounds in data analysis, finance, asset accounting, records management, business systems or similar fields are encouraged to apply.

What you’ll bring

To thrive in this role, you’ll bring:

• Tertiary qualifications in an appropriate discipline of science, technology or engineering; or equivalent relevant industry experience or relevant transferable skills.
• Understanding of Australian local government’s asset lifecycle management principles, or a willingness to learn.
• A current Class C Driver’s Licence
• A willingness to build positive relationships with internal and external partners, and demonstrate our STRIVE values (Service, Teamwork, Respect, Integrity, Vision and Excellence) in everything you do.

Applications close at 11:30pm Tuesday 10 November 2026
