Featured City Manager City of McCall, ID An exciting career and lifestyle opportunity for an individual with the expectation of becoming part of the fabric of the community — actively involved with, and easily accessible to, the residents. The ideal City Manager will have a close, trusting working relationship with the City Council, City staff, the community at large, and state and regional partners — including the special service districts for wastewater and Fire/EMS, the National Forest Service, the County, Tribal governments and others. The City is seeking an experienced, professional leader who values integrity, unquestionable honesty and community. Applicants should be experienced in the policy areas of financial stewardship, community planning and infrastructure, community engagement, environmental stewardship, emergency planning, and workforce housing — particularly in a year-round resort community. The incoming City Manager will inherit an excellent team of strong, creative and experienced Department Heads who are accustomed to being full partners in the planning and decision-making for the organization. The City Manager will be expected to foster a collaborative and respectful work environment with Department Heads and City staff, as well as with the City Council. The ideal candidate should be a natural people person — approachable, genuine and easy to engage; an exceptional communicator; a motivational leader able to listen and guide their team; honest and forthright, with the ability to hold those around them accountable and equally comfortable being held accountable. As a key member and leader of the McCall team, it is important that the City Manager is a strategic thinker who is equally a creative problem solver and a supporter of new ideas and innovation. The City Manager is likewise expected to foster a strong relationship with the community at large. As the "face of the City" and easily recognized in town, residents are accustomed to easy access to the City Manager, and the incoming Manager should plan to embrace the role of listening to citizen concerns and actively addressing them. Moreover, the City Manager serves as the ambassador and liaison to the City's regional partners and should be skilled at proactively fostering and maintaining positive external relationships. It is further important that the next City Manager be politically astute and an experienced legislative advocate for the City.
