The Shire's land area of 7,376 square kilometres (2,848 sq mi) forms a narrow east-west band, located between the Shire of Narembeen to the north and the Shire of Kulin to the south. Its seat of government is the town of Kondinin.

The Kondinin Road District was gazetted on 15 May 1925, separating the district from the Roe Road District with effect from 1 July in that year.^[2][3] The first election was held on 5 September 1925, with the first meeting taking place seven days later.^[4][5]

It was declared a shire with effect from 1 July 1961 following the passage of the Local Government Act 1960, which reformed all remaining road districts into shires.^[2]

The shire was previously divided into four wards; however, these were abolished in 2004. All eight councillors sit at large.
