City Manager Jobs
City managers are professional administrators who try to make city governments operate with efficiency and decorum. Their work is directed by elected officials, such as mayors and city councils, who hire them. Only after getting the council's okay, can the manager work on his own. City managers prepare budgets, hire administrative officers, oversee record keeping, and supervise the heads of such departments as law enforcement, fire protection, and sanitation. City managers must be familiar with all aspects of government and public works. They cannot, however, take sides publicly in political disputes. Smaller cities may have only a city manager and one administrative assistant. In larger cities a city manager may have an assistant manager for each department, such as transportation or education.
City managers must be graduates specializing in courses in economics, sociology, statistics, urban planning, political science, finance, and management may prove essential.
