Recruitment for specialist staff to help deliver an additional $30M-plus in projects for Wagga Wagga is underway, with early signs showing plenty of interest in the roles. Wagga Wagga City Council has started its recruitment campaign for 17 new positions including engineers, project managers, construction supervisors, business analysts and procurement staff. Nine of the positions have the option of being located in Sydney and working remotely for Wagga Wagga City Council in a shared office space with the NSW Government Special Activation Precinct team and State Development Corporation. "The goal is to attract the best staff we can, and then demonstrate why living in Wagga Wagga is brilliant,” Council’s General Manager Peter Thompson said. “It’s a proven path with both medical professionals and former defence staff falling love with our region once they start working here. “We haven’t been able to get these staff to locate to Wagga Wagga in the past, despite advertising and working with recruitment agencies. This is a new option. We are trying something new. “The recruitment is underway and I’m pleased to say the idea has generated 300 applications already. “The end goal is to get these vitally important projects off the ground, and to provide another entry point for people to experience the regional city lifestyle with the option to relocate here.”
WHY ESTABLISH AN OFFICE IN SYDNEY?
Council has sought to fill numerous engineering, project management and various other specialist roles in the past years.

The State announced Wagga Wagga’s Bomen industrial area as a Special Activation Precinct in early 2019. These precincts ‘turn off’ normal planning legislation, replacing red tape with red carpet to attract new businesses and grow existing industry. “At the end of the day, this initiative is about attracting the best skilled staff we can to relocated to Wagga Wagga and call our region home,” Mr Thompson said. “Offering an ‘all or nothing’ decision is what regional councils have done before. “Right across the state, there is a common voice that there is a skills shortage.

While there has been some success, the pool of applications has been limited, and in some cases, Council has been to the market on three occasions for key positions and not found suitable candidates with the required level of technical skill and expertise. The roles advertised are specialist roles and successful applicants will be given the choice of working in Sydney or Wagga Wagga. “They can relocate at any time once they have experienced the great lifestyle a regional city offers,” Mr Thompson said. “For families and couples, it also gives their partner time to find appropriate work in Wagga Wagga or to factor in their children’s schooling before they move to Wagga Wagga. It takes all the time and finance pressure off that decision.”

LET'S TALK LIBRARIES
The Wagga Wagga City Library building is 20 years old and a review is underway of library services and programs in preparation for the city’s expected population increase to 100,000 people by 2040. Opportunities to make the library bigger and better, and more accessible are on the agenda and we want to capture your feedback. Funded by the library’s annual Local Priority Grant awarded by the State Government, the review is being undertaken from now until March 2020.

THE HALL COMMIT TEE IS ALMOST R E A DY TO H I T T H E ROA D The Civic Theatre is hitting the road for a whirlwind tour of the region for its new original production The Hall Committee. Written by actor and comedian Damian Callinan, whose film The Merger was made in Wagga Wagga, The Hall Committee is an interactive new play based on stories and interviews from local people in various community halls. This September, the production will transform halls in North Wagga, Oura, Ganmain, Uranquinty, Ladysmith, Downside and Cootamundra into the fictional village of “Rummage South”. Civic Theatre Manager Carissa Campbell said there has been plenty of interest in The Hall Committee, which will feature both local and interstate actors. “We’re actively looking at ways we can help foster more local content by working with the local professional theatre industry to develop new works and provide performance opportunities for young and emerging artists,” Ms Campbell said. “By hosting the play in community halls, we’re also encouraging the audience to get out and see parts of the region they might not have visited before. “Ticket sales have been strong, with most shows already sold

There is still availability at Ganmain and Cootamundra which have slightly larger capacities. Mr Callinan said the play tells the story of the stringent Rummage South hall committee president Brenda, who is at odds with her fellow committee members over how the rundown hall should be used by the community. “I spoke with some passionate people who told some fantastic stories. I didn’t need to change much at all … their stories
dropped straight into the script,” he said. “The audiences will have their own hall transformed in front of them as the cast usurp their residing committee to bring this interactive, immersive, hilarious play to life.” The Hall Committee’s tour of the region is made possible through a $12,000 Community Presenter Touring Grant from Create NSW.
