Local Government

Advisers to Australia’s local government sector

We help councils strengthen governance, financial sustainability and performance, so they can deliver services and infrastructure that meet community expectations and statutory obligations.

Local Government Experts

Supporting councils and local communities

Local government operates at the front line of community service delivery, under close public and regulatory scrutiny. Councils must balance statutory and reporting requirements with the expectations of residents and businesses on service levels, infrastructure, growth and liveability.

At Moore Australia, we work with local governments across Australia to help them strengthen governance, financial sustainability and performance while maintaining community trust.

Contact Us

Moore Australia has been working with local government for more than three decades. Our specialist local government advisory team is built from professionals specifically recruited for their council and public sector experience.

We understand the legislative frameworks, reporting requirements, funding models and operational realities that shape your decisions and interactions with regulators, auditors and the community.

We are a leading provider of audit, accounting, governance and advisory services to local government. Our one stop approach means we can support you across external and internal audit, financial reporting, budgets and long term financial planning, risk management and performance improvement.

This integrated view helps councillors and executives see how governance, finance and service delivery interact, rather than treating them as separate issues.

Our philosophy is to work alongside you, not just report on you. We invest time in understanding your council’s context, priorities and constraints, and aim to provide practical, implementable recommendations rather than theoretical reports.

Through workshops, briefings and ongoing dialogue, we support councillors, executive teams and staff to interpret findings, build capability and embed improvements.
