Central Hawke'S Bay District Council

Central Hawke’s Bay District Council is the local government agency responsible for providing core infrastructural and social services for the people of Central Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. Averaging 2,000 sunshine hours per year the District offers an attractive lifestyle to its 13,000 people. With just two main towns and a number of smaller rural and beach townships, life here avoids the hustle and bustle associated with larger urban centres. Sitting on State Highway 2 and on the main Wellington to Napier railway line, the District offers proximity to Hawke’s Bay in the north, Manawatu in the west and Wellington/Wairarapa in the south. The centrality of the District keeps it in touch with the rest of the world and offers a viable alternative to big city living. We are committed to providing a safe and great place to work, that values diversity and inclusion, and develops skilled people who can lead our community to thrive.
