Description
The City of Edmonton is a vibrant, multicultural, and cosmopolitan city with a regional population of over 1.1 million. Growing faster than almost any other Canadian city, Edmonton is at the heart of Alberta’s economic engine and is fueled by change. Home to the country’s youngest workforce, Edmonton understands the value that new and different perspectives bring. In response to the change and rapid growth taking place, the City has restructured to enable a more integrated and regional strategy for urban form, transportation/mobility, economic, and social development. The City of Edmonton is now seeking outstanding leadership for the role of Deputy City Manager, Urban Form and Corporate Strategic Development.

Reporting to the City Manager, the Deputy City Manager is a member of the Executive Management Team and responsible for City Planning, Development Services, Real Estate & Land, and Corporate Strategic Development. With a team of close to 900, the DCM formulates and implements local and regional strategies to build a sustainable, healthy, and economically viable city. As the hub for integrating strategic plans, the DCM provides a comprehensive and holistic perspective on The Way the City grows. 

Requirements

A city builder based in Canada or internationally, the ideal candidate is a highly regarded influencer of how world-class cities are formed. With more than 15 years of executive leadership experience, you are skilled at proactively engaging council, the community, and industry in the city-building process. You share the City’s vision of a culture that is service oriented verses regulatory in nature. As a chief strategist you apply your integrated thinking and planning capacity to connect corporate goals and deliver high quality outputs. Having led complex place-making and transportation/mobility initiatives, you have created cities that are citizen centric. Here is your opportunity to play a transformational role in building a city that is compact, sustainable, and transit oriented.
