CAO - Village of Holden

Country living truly means quality of life and hospitality. Many facilities offer area residents a choice of activity and community involvement including the Holden Complex with a skating arena and indoor show area for 4-H clubs, library, community hall, playground with spray park, sports grounds, campground and nature’s hotspots all within a short drive.

As CAO, you will report to Village Council and be responsible for managing day-to-day operations, ensuring municipal policies and programs are implemented and advising and informing council on the operation of the municipality. You will be the public facing representative for public matters, community issues, public works, and budget management.

Aside from enjoying that close-knit community feeling, the incumbent will also need:

• 5 years’ demonstrated experience in a leadership role for a municipality of comparable complexity and diversity or equivalent;
• University or college education in public administration, business, commerce, accounting or finance, planning or in a relevant professional discipline. Equivalent combinations of experience and education will be considered;
• Certified Local Government Managers (CLGM) Designation or National Advanced Certificate in Local Government Administration is preferred;
• Class 5 Driver’s License, in good standing and reliable vehicle to use to get to the village office in Holden as well as to use on village business; and
• Ability to obtain a clean Criminal Record Check, and satisfactory credit check.

Holden looks forward to a bright future where residents, commercial business owners and visitors will continue to enjoy the refreshing serenity that its rural setting offers.
