THE OPPORTUNITY
Award-winning Sugar Land, Texas seeks a dynamic and inspirational Director who can “next level” its Parks and Recreation Department.
ABOUT SUGAR LAND
In the heart of Sugar Land, a city pulsating with vibrancy and growth, governance takes on a trailblazing form. In Sugar Land, governance isn't just about managing; it's about trailblazing. It's about harnessing the collective energy of a diverse workforce, mobilizing resources with precision, and navigating the complex terrain of urban administration with unparalleled vision. As the city strides confidently into the future, it does so not as a follower but as a pioneer—a trailblazer setting the standard for municipalities far and wide.
Amidst this dynamic landscape, 20 City Departments stand as pillars of progress, each a crucial conduit of community service and development. Among these, the Parks and Recreation Department stands out as a beacon of leisure, wellness, and communal vitality. Whether that’s the way parks provide gathering spaces to spend time with those you care most about; entertainment and activities that bring joy and excitement to your life; programming that celebrates you on your best days and provides you community on your worst; and neighborhood facilities that are critical to a house feeling like a home.
THE DEPARTMENT
In the dynamic tapestry of Sugar Land's community, the Parks and Recreation Department emerges as a trailblazer, delivering unparalleled experiences and enriching the lives of its residents. With a commitment to excellence ingrained in its very essence, this department stands as a beacon of innovation and service.
Spanning a vast landscape of 2,455 acres, adorned with 27 meticulously crafted parks and over 35 miles of winding trails, Sugar Land's outdoor sanctuaries offer a haven for exploration and recreation. Complemented by five vibrant community centers, two state-of-the-art recreation centers, and a sparkling municipal swimming pool, the department's facilities serve as focal points of communal engagement and wellness. Structured for success, the department operates through two dynamic divisions: Recreation and Events, and Development and Maintenance. Each division, under the adept guidance of an Assistant Director, orchestrates a symphony of activities and initiatives aimed at fostering community cohesion and vitality.
Empowered by a recently approved FY 2024 budget of $6.2 million and supported by a dedicated team of 38 Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) employees, the Parks and Recreation Department is primed to elevate its offerings to unprecedented heights. With a spirit of innovation at its core and a steadfast dedication to serving the community, this department paves the way for a brighter, more vibrant future in Sugar Land.
THE IDEAL CANDIDATE
The ideal candidate for the position of Director of Parks and Recreation will embody a unique blend of traits and experiences, each essential for steering this department toward continued success and innovation. Some of the qualities sought are a strong and passionate leader, not only for the parks and recreation department employees, but also on the City’s leadership team, and in the community; a teamwork orientation and ability to build and support strong and effective teams by providing mentorship and investing in the development of departmental leadership; a candidate who is forward thinking, risk taking and a coach to staff that will create an innovative and inspirational vision for Sugar Land’s parks and recreation programming; and a self-motivated individual with an infectious, can-do attitude.
SALARY AND BENEFITS
The anticipated starting salary for the Parks and Recreation Director is between $120,390 and $180,627, depending on qualifications. Sugar Land also offers great benefits and perks available on your first day of employment, including: City-subsidized health benefits; life and disability insurance; a variety of voluntary benefits; 6 weeks of paid parental leave for new/growing families; a robust pension plan with TMRS; flexible schedules and work from home opportunities; a down-to-earth casual environment and dress code; and a positive team-oriented culture stemming from a long-term commitment to innovation and inclusion. You can even bring your dog and/or cat to work if they have a solid understanding of office decorum.
