Mayor & councillors
Hunter's Hill Council has seven councillors: a Mayor elected directly by voters (unlike most Sydney councils, where councillors choose the mayor), plus three councillors for each of two wards — North and South. Below is who currently holds office, with links to their official profiles and the September 2024 election results.

We list who's in office and link to their official profiles and the election results; we don't characterise anyone's politics. Party labels are those each councillor was elected under at the September 2024 election (NSW Electoral Commission). A council's makeup can change between elections through casual vacancies, so the council's official page has the most current list.
