    Parks & Recreation Director

    City of Oregon City, Oregon

    Salary: $120,348 - $150,264 DOQ

     

    Oregon City, Oregon, is rich in history, natural beauty, and modern amenities. Located at the confluence of the Willamette and Clackamas Rivers, Oregon City offers a unique blend of smalltown charm and easy access to the amenities of the Portland metropolitan area. Known as “The City at the End of the Oregon Trail,” Oregon City is deeply rooted in history, being the first incorporated city west of the Rocky Mountains and serving as the original capital of the Oregon Territory. Today, Oregon City remains a vital regional hub as the county seat of Clackamas County and is designated as a Regional Center, with a population of approximately 38,469 residents across 10.27 square miles. The Oregon City area offers an expansive range of recreational opportunities due to its proximity to rivers, excellent golf courses, Mt. Hood, and the Oregon Coast. With its historic downtown, riverfront parks, and scenic trails, Oregon City continues to attract families, professionals, and outdoor enthusiasts who seek a balanced lifestyle blending history, nature, and modern convenience.

     

    Operating on a 2023-2025 biennial budget of $12,974,000 with approximately 39 FTEs, the City of Oregon City’s Parks & Recreation Department has 29 recreational facilities and works to create community in the city through people, parks, and programs. The Parks & Recreation Department provides space to learn and play, as well as programs, services and activities for groups of all ages. The functions of the Parks & Recreation Department are assigned to six major programs: Parks Operations Maintenance, Aquatics, Recreation, Pioneer Community Center, Mountain View Cemetery, and Facilities Maintenance. Each year, the department has over 85,000 visits to the city’s pool and provides nearly 39,000 meals to seniors in the community.

     

    The Parks & Recreation Director is a senior management position and part of a top administrative team, responsible for integrating all public services provided by the city for its citizens. Working under the general direction of the Assistant City Manager, the Parks & Recreation Director plans, organizes, integrates, and directs the organization, programs, financial management, administration, personnel, and operations of the city’s parks, recreation, aquatic, senior services, and cemetery. This position also plans, directs, and coordinates services with other departments, governmental agencies, and community groups. The Parks & Recreation Director oversees the Deputy Parks & Recreation Director and the rest of the department’s management team.
