New recruitment service

THE WA Local Government Association has introduced a new service to help overcome tricky appointment scenarios.

The new recruitment and selection service, Local Government Workplace Solutions, will conduct executive reviews and remove the onus from council employees, who in the past may have been called upon by elected members to help recruit and select a chief executive officer.

In addition, the dedicated Workplace Solutions team within the Local Government Association will manage general recruitment, selection, training and development, and provide advocacy and representation, and events management services.

Services will attract a fee, but obligation-free quotes are offered.
