Nassau County, FL
96135 Nassau Place, Yulee, FL, USA
Tucked into Florida’s northeast corner and hugging the Atlantic Ocean along Interstate 95 north of Jacksonville, Nassau County’s 726 square miles proudly serve as the eastern gateway to the Sunshine State. From pristine beaches and natural preserves to historic landmarks and first-class amenities, the community of over 101,500 residents and a regional population of 1.7 million, is among the fastest-growing counties in the country — and it’s no surprise. Through land use planning, zoning regulations, and conservation efforts, the county balances growth with environmental stewardship, creating livable communities and enhancing the quality of life for its residents.
Reporting to the County Manager’s Office, the Utility Authority Executive Director is a highly responsible professional and managerial position providing direct support to the County Manager on various utility related programs, services, delivery models, and planning.
This newly created position will not physically oversee the operation of any water or wastewater treatment plants, but rather serve as a liaison with current utility providers to proactively plan for adequate services in a fast-growing region and to lay the foundation to establish a future comprehensive utility authority in Nassau County. The Executive Director is expected to proactively develop effective intergovernmental relationships and perform, plan, schedule, coordinate, monitor, and review interlocal and franchise agreements, and related legislative requirements impacting current and future utility affairs. The successful candidate should have a background in municipal utility management, with a strong understanding of utility infrastructure planning, operations, permitting, and long-term capital planning in high-growth environments to ensure reliable public utility services for both current and future residents and customers within Nassau County.
Tucked into Florida’s northeast corner and hugging the Atlantic Ocean along Interstate 95 north of Jacksonville, Nassau County’s 726 square miles proudly serve as the eastern gateway to the Sunshine State. From pristine beaches and natural preserves to historic landmarks and first-class amenities, the community of over 101,500 residents and a regional population of 1.7 million, is among the fastest-growing counties in the country — and it’s no surprise. Through land use planning, zoning regulations, and conservation efforts, the county balances growth with environmental stewardship, creating livable communities and enhancing the quality of life for its residents.
Reporting to the County Manager’s Office, the Utility Authority Executive Director is a highly responsible professional and managerial position providing direct support to the County Manager on various utility related programs, services, delivery models, and planning.
This newly created position will not physically oversee the operation of any water or wastewater treatment plants, but rather serve as a liaison with current utility providers to proactively plan for adequate services in a fast-growing region and to lay the foundation to establish a future comprehensive utility authority in Nassau County. The Executive Director is expected to proactively develop effective intergovernmental relationships and perform, plan, schedule, coordinate, monitor, and review interlocal and franchise agreements, and related legislative requirements impacting current and future utility affairs. The successful candidate should have a background in municipal utility management, with a strong understanding of utility infrastructure planning, operations, permitting, and long-term capital planning in high-growth environments to ensure reliable public utility services for both current and future residents and customers within Nassau County.
