Considered one of the most livable and desirable communities in the nation, the City of Ventura (pop. 111,790) sits in California’s Gold Coast region slightly north of Los Angeles County.

This results-oriented professional will also be an inspiring people manager with a history of effectively leading change. Exceptional communications and interpersonal skills along with a history of successful relationship building will also be expected. Six years of progressively responsible community development experience, including at least two years of administrative/management experience, along with a bachelor’s degree is required. A master’s degree is preferred.
