From the General Manager
“Mosman is an innovative and responsive Council with a wide range of projects, services and regular activities designed to make a difference and meet the needs of our local community.
Mosman staff members have spearheaded significant works across a diverse range of fields, including large-scale engineering projects, major exhibitions at Mosman Art Gallery, activities at Barry O’Keefe Library and a variety of events showcasing the annual Festival of Mosman. Mosman Council has recently set ambitious targets in response to climate change and is in the midst of preparing a climate strategy and action plan for the next five years to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Mosman Council is the sort of place where employees want to come to work and it’s because we’re keeping one eye on the proud traditions of our past and the other, on a future we’re creating for ourselves and the community we serve. A future that encourages vibrancy, connectedness and is sustainable for future generations.”
