THE TOWNSHIP OF RUSSELL
has an opening for a

DIRECTOR OF ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES

(Full time position)



Located approximately 30 minutes south-east of downtown Ottawa, the Township of Russell finds itself in a very dynamic time. Over the next fifteen years, the Municipality anticipates unprecedented growth. There are already significant capital projects on the horizon and, in concert with the overall growth of the National Capital Region, Russell is steadily changing. All agree that the decisions of the current Council will have a significant immediate and long-term impact on the community. It is within this context that the Township is looking to recruit a new Director of Environmental Services.

Under the general supervision of the Chief Administrative Officer, this new Director will be responsible for all areas of planning, administration and operation of water, wastewater, refuse collection, recycling, disposal and landfill operations. The Director will also be responsible for significant engineering initiatives now and in the immediate future that will build and fortify the Township’s infrastructure for generations to come. The Director will explore Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and use innovative thinking to help deliver creative solutions while ensuring the Township continues to deliver high quality and efficient service to its residents.

As an ideal candidate for this key role, you have a deep and diverse engineering background and you understand the principles behind good water, wastewater and solid waste programs. You have experience dealing with councils, the general public, and with community groups. Your knowledge and experience of Public Private Partnerships is a valuable asset. You are strategic but still enjoy being “hands on”, confident but never arrogant, and you exude competence while still remaining approachable.

To apply to this position or to obtain more information, please contact Eric Lathrop or Richard Rankin in our Ottawa office at (613) 742-3207 or richard.rankin@rayberndtson.ca

Ken Hill, Mayor

Pierre Tessier, Chief Administrative Officer
