Best wishes in your new role, Conan!

👋 Staff Spotlight - Meet Conan Williams!

Welcome to the newest member of the Litchfield Council team, Conan Williams our Recreation Reserve Liaison Officer.

In this new role, Conan will be the friendly face helping to keep our recreation reserves looking their best. From minor repairs and maintenance to working with community groups and reserve committees, he'll be out and about across the municipality supporting our parks and reserves.

A proud Territorian, Conan's career started as a boilermaker and welder before spending more than 10 years with Bushfires NT in a range of roles, including fire management, training and compliance. His experience working with volunteers, landholders and communities across the Territory makes him a great fit for the role.

When he's not at work, Conan enjoys spending time with his wife, two children, a collection of pets and making the most of the great outdoors - especially if it involves a fishing rod! 🎣

Be sure to say hello if you see him around! 👋

The ground is wet and the rivers are full.
You should be assessing your flood and inclement weather plans.
Always be prepared for 72 hours of isolation.
And.. don’t be a floodwit! If it’s flooded, forget it! Give our emergency crews a break.
Stay safe you mob 🫶
