Classified | City of Piedmont seeks finance director

Reporting to the City Administrator, the Finance Director administers the fiscal operations and activities of the City, which include budgeting, investments, financial transaction processing, record-keeping and reporting, payroll, accounts payable, and accounts receivable. The Finance Director also manages and oversees all functions of the Finance Division, including finance, treasury, accounting, and purchasing.

The successful candidate will be a “hands-on” working Finance Director with proven technical expertise in the areas of accounts payable and receivable, payroll, investment of city funds, procurement and, most importantly, preparation of the annual budget. This career opportunity is ideal for finance professionals who are comfortable working in a “highly” spirited community and engaging with residents via the Budget Advisory & Financial Planning Committee and other resident advisory boards. Applicants who exhibit political acumen, possess a balance of technical and soft skills, thrive in a dynamic, fast-moving environment, work well with small teams, are creative thinkers who thrive at transforming core functions to make them more efficient, understandable, and accessible will make the strongest candidates. 

The Council is committed to offering competitive yet fiscally responsible compensation and is currently conducting a Wage and Compensation Study. The current annual salary is $213,852.
