Greenville is a remarkable turn around story. After problems in the early 2000’s the borough was declared distressed by the Commonwealth and then deliberately and systemically built the municipal government back to its current position: fiscally stable, professionally run, and determined to advance its economic and community future.

The ideal candidate with have 5 years of experience, thrive in an environment where community development, fiscal health, resilience and project execution are the primary focus.

• Lifestyle: Access to Riverside Park, the Shenango River, top-tier local healthcare, national blue-ribbon school district, affordability, college town, and Pymatuning State Park.
• Stability: A community with a proud heritage and an active, engaged citizenry.

Preferred Qualifications & Compensation

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Public Administration, Business, or related field (Master’s/MPA preferred)
• Experience: 5+ years of progressive management experience in a municipal or public sector setting
• Salary: Starting at $95,000 based on experience
• Competitive Benefits Package: comprehensive health, vision, dental coverage, defined compensation pension with employer match, life and AD&D insurance, employee leave including vacation, personal and sick leave
