The western border is 30 minutes from Sacramento and only 20 minutes away from over one million acres of breathtaking national forest. El Dorado County offers many year-round activities, including golfing, hiking, mountain biking, gold panning, whitewater rafting and snow sports. The largest city in the county is South Lake Tahoe, with a population of 22,197, and the city of Placerville is the county seat and is located 45 miles northeast of Sacramento.

The Chief Administrative Officer is appointed by and reports to the Board of Supervisors and is responsible to the Board for the proper and efficient administration of the affairs of the county as prescribed in the County Charter. The Chief Administrative Officer is also responsible for coordinating the work of all offices and departments, identifying ways to achieve efficiency and economy in all county operations, and recommending and administering the county budget. In addition to the responsibility for overall county administration, the Chief Administrative Officer oversees the following: Emergency Medical Services and Emergency Preparedness Response Division; Office of Wildfire Preparedness and Resilience; Parks Division; and maintains a Central Services Division to provide services to the divisions of the office and other County departments through two centralized fiscal units, countywide procurement and contracts, mail and stores, and centralized facilities services.
A bachelor’s degree from an accredited four-year college or university with major coursework in public or business administration, political science, planning, public policy, finance, or a related field is required. The ideal candidate will also have ten years of professional-level experience in progressively responsible administrative, operational, budgetary, or similar management analytical work, four of which must be in a County Executive/Administrative Office setting, City Manager Office, or comparable public agency dealing with major public policy issues; and three of which must be in a management capacity.
