Long Beach Utilities offers a rewarding career in a city known for its rich cultural diversity, thriving arts scene, and beautiful beaches. Join a forward-thinking team dedicated to sustainability and innovation while enjoying the perfect balance of work and play. Make Long Beach your new home and be part of a community that values progress, inclusivity, and a high quality of life. Long Beach Utilities presents an excellent career opportunity to join a progressive organization dedicated to providing the highest quality of service to water, natural gas and sewer customers in Long Beach. Ideal candidates must have a proven track record of proactive, participative management experience and possess excellent interpersonal, problem solving, communication, leadership, and financial management skills. The General Manager is responsible for all functions of the Water, Natural Gas and Sewer Utilities. The General Manager will direct a staff of approximately 500 full-time employees led by an executive leadership team that includes three Assistant General Managers. The Board of Utilities Commissioners recently adopted a $378 million budget for FY25 to fund the Long Beach Utilities Department. The budget encompasses a $180 million Water Fund, a $165 million Gas Fund, and a $33 million Sewer Fund supporting infrastructure, maintenance and services from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025. LONG BEACH UTILITIES Long Beach Utilities provides three primary utility services to nearly 500,000 residents and businesses, including: a) the unfailing delivery of high quality, delicious drinking water, b) the safe delivery of natural gas throughout Long Beach (as well as the City of Signal Hill), and c) reliable sewer services. The City has successfully provided these three utility services to the community for over 100 years. These utility services are provided via a vast network of approximately 5,000 miles of underground pipeline.

In November 2022, the voters of Long Beach approved a change to the City’s charter to create the Public Utilities Department, consolidating the City’s water, natural gas, and sewer services into one department.

Oversight of the City’s water, natural gas, and sewer operations is provided by the independent Board of Utilities Commissioners and managed by the General Manager who reports directly to the Board.
