Are you the City of North Plains’ next Public Works Director?

If you’re looking for an exciting career opportunity where you can have a significant, positive impact on an original and growing small community in Oregon’s Silicon Forest then look no further!

By joining our team, the Public Works Director can give new strategic direction to the department and work on a large array of exciting projects and developments - including a new Public Works Facility which is currently in the design phase. You will be an integral part of our management team advising the City Manager and City Council, and collaborating with department leadership, staff, and community members.

North Plains is a small, growing semi-rural city 17 miles west of Downtown Portland on the edge of Oregon’s innovative Silicon Forest, less than an hour from the Oregon Coast. With over 3,400 residents and 160 businesses, our gradual and thoughtful growth over the years has helped to maintain a friendly, small-town atmosphere. 

Our small but talented staff of under 25 City employees throughout five departments are proud to serve in an open, supportive, and flexible environment where we work to provide services, solutions, and outcomes that help our community to thrive. We have a tight-knit and supportive office culture, an employee-friendly PTO policy, and we believe in a healthy work/life balance.
