An experienced leader in governmental finance and budgeting.

Comfortable advising executive leadership while maintaining hands-on involvement in daily financial operations.

Situated along the scenic Monongahela River in north-central West Virginia, Morgantown is a dynamic community that blends the energy of a nationally recognized university city with the charm and accessibility of a close-knit community.

The City of Morgantown operates under a Council-Manager form of government. The City Council

consists of seven at-large members, including the Mayor. The City Manager oversees daily municipal operations. Reporting directly to the City Manager, the next Finance Director will lead and develop a nine-person finance department which is responsible for safeguarding the City’s financial integrity while providing strategic financial leadership that supports sound decision-making across the organization.

The City of Morgantown is seeking an experienced, collaborative finance professional who is equally comfortable working alongside staff on day-to-day operations and serving as a strategic advisor to executive leadership.

Required qualifications include:

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a closely related field.

Minimum of six (6) years of progressively responsible financial management experience.

Comprehensive knowledge of governmental budgeting, accounting principles, financial reporting, cash management, debt administration, and internal controls.

Demonstrated ability to prepare and administer municipal budgets, financial forecasts, and capital improvement plans.

Knowledge of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), Governmental Accounting

Standards Board (GASB) standards, and applicable federal, state, and local regulations.

Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to present financial information to executive leadership, elected officials, boards, and the public.

Ability to build collaborative working relationships while leading and developing professional staff.

Preferred qualifications include:

Certified Public Accountant (CPA).

Two (2) or more years of governmental finance experience.

Experience administering debt issuances, Tax Increment Financing (TIF) districts, pension funds, grants, and capital improvement planning.

Experience implementing process improvements, strengthening budget development, improving internal controls, and mentoring developing finance teams.

Experience working directly with elected officials, executive leadership, auditors, bond counsel, financial advisors, and regulatory agencies.

The salary range for this position is $90,000 - $110,000, depending on experience and qualifications.
