The Village of Shorewood Hills is seeking a dynamic, highly engaged, and collaborative local government professional to be its next Village Administrator. Shorewood Hills is a highly desirable community that is an inner ring suburb of Madison, the State Capital, and is adjacent to the University of Wisconsin campus on beautiful Lake Mendota. Shorewood Hills is a welcoming and inclusive community that is very proud of its outstanding schools, excellent medical facilities, great shopping, and parks and open spaces, as well as extensive biking/walking trails. Shorewood Hills is a community that prides itself on being a wonderful place to live, work, play, learn, and visit and provides high quality municipal services to its residents. The Village’s financial position is strong as it maintains a AAA municipal bond rating and operates three Tax Increment Districts (TIDs) along one of the Madison region’s busiest commercial corridors.
Starting salary range $115K-$135K DOQ plus excellent benefits. Village President and Six Village Trustees are elected for two year terms on a non-partisan basis. Board members are unpaid volunteers as are many residents who serve more than a dozen committees that sets the example for self-governance. $13M total annual budget including CIP, TIDs, and Utilities. The Village is staffed by 21FT and 125+PT/seasonal employees. Future emphasis will be on capital improvement planning/implementation (with an emphasis on renovation/replacement of Village buildings/facilities, various street and utility upgrades and Village park improvements), retirement of existing Village TIDs and possible creation of new TIDs, and University Avenue Corridor commercial and mixed-use development. Additionally, the Village expects to undertake the development of its first ever Strategic Plan.

Shorewood Hills has in-fill and redevelopment opportunities so having a passion for that work is a plus. Desire experience in budget development and management, community engagement, capital improvement planning and execution, human resources administration, municipal facilities planning, and environmental stewardship/sustainability. The successful candidate should possess acute listening skills (seeking first to understand then to respond), a high level of both professional and personal integrity, a collaborative style in carrying out governing body policies, an open and positive communications approach, the ability to build teams and credibility as a leader in addressing community issues, and the ability to appreciate the Village’s history and values.
