Upper Hutt City Council

Our city is one of a kind. In Upper Hutt we are surrounded by outstanding natural beauty and a wide range of leisure and recreational activities. From roads, transport, community initiatives and civil services, to business, investment, recreation and policy, Upper Hutt City Council is involved in every part of our city. Within the wider Council family we have five businesses - Upper Hutt City Council, H2O Xtream, Upper Hutt Libraries, Activation and Whirinaki Whare Taonga. Our people work on a variety of tasks ranging from customer service, planning, and policy, to engineering, community outreach, road science and communications. There’s never a dull day at Council. As an employee you will gain access to Council facilities, including the many parks and reserves in close proximity. You will also work alongside great people in a supportive environment that believes in work/life balance. Working for Council is more than a job - it’s a passion. Our vision for the future is for all Upper Hutt residents to be proud of Upper Hutt as a city, and for visitors to our region to experience all that Upper Hutt has to offer. Over the next ten years, our city and our economy will continue to grow. We will continue to attract new families to our beautiful region who will contribute to thriving communities and businesses.
