Durham , North Carolina, Reopened Position Closes August 3, 2026 Are you a leader who enjoys running large, complex operations and working in public service? Are you comfortable leading multiple teams and ensuring work gets done well, on time, and within budget? Are you motivated by shaping the places where people live, work, gather, and connect—and leaving them better than you found them? Do you have experience with delivering projects with an outcome mindset, while collaborating with consultants, partners, and identified community stakeholders? If so, the City of Durham is seeking a General Services Director to provide executive leadership for the stewardship of City facilities, property, and public spaces. The General Services Director isn't just a department head; the successful candidate will be the custodian of Durham’s future and a primary architect of the city’s physical identity. This is a rare opportunity. The General Services Department plays a critical role in supporting Durham’s quality of life and economic vitality by managing the City’s built environment through strategic planning, facilities operations, and capital project delivery. The General Services Director oversees a diverse range of services—from building design and construction to facilities maintenance, landscaping and urban forestry, cemeteries, real estate services, cultural and public art programs, and sustainability initiatives—that support the City’s physical assets.

The City Manager, along with three Deputy City Managers and one Assistant City Manager, leads more than 2,600 employees working across 26 departments that serve approximately 286,000 residents. The City’s FY 2025–2026 general operating budget totals $772 million, representing an 8% increase over the previous fiscal year. The budget is supported by a property tax rate of 43.71 cents per $100 of assessed value, which funds community safety, employee compensation, and infrastructure projects. This rate reflects a 5.48-cent increase over the revenue-neutral rate, driven in part by a $200 million voter-approved bond to support investments in parks, sidewalks, and streets. The City’s day-to-day operations and plan for future growth are guided by its Strategic Plan, Durham: Level Up Durham , which was updated in 2024 and guides how the City serves its residents, invests in its future, and creates opportunities for all. A 2024 Resident Survey indicates that 79% of respondents rated the city as an excellent or good place to live, while 74% are satisfied with the overall quality of life in their neighborhood.  Initiatives in the strategic plan have set a high bar to increase those percentages over time and to achieve Council goals of: Shared Economic Prosperity, Creating a Safer Community Together, Connected, Engaged and Diverse Communities, Innovative & High Performing Organization, and Sustainable Natural and Built Environment. The City prides itself on community engagement and offers multiple ways for the community to become involved and stay informed, from 27 Advisory Boards and Commissions to state-of-the-art communication tools such as an open data Web platform, social media, and community surveys.   Learn more about the City of Durham here .
