City of Fayetteville Seeks Director of Economic Vitality

1 min read

The city of Fayetteville is advertising its newly created position of director of economic vitality, a position that was approved by the city council earlier this year.

The application process is open and the city hasn’t narrowed down any of the candidates for interviews. Chief of Staff Don Marr will head the hiring committee, and the new director will report to Marr.

The salary for the position is listed at between $56,680 and $86,382 annually.

“We’re doing a national search,” said Susan Norton, the city’s communications director. “We’re keeping it open until we find a variety of candidates. We want to have somebody hired as soon as possible.”

The position is part of the city’s Fayetteville First strategic plan. The city has contracts with Startup Junkie Consulting and the Chamber of Commerce to promote economic development, and the new director will coordinate the city’s services with an emphasis on entrepreneurship.
