Job Description
The City of Redondo Beach seeks a Waterfront Manager to help oversee the City-owned harbor area. The City’s Harbor and Pier area occupies over 150-acres of land and water and is comprised of a combination of publicly accessible open space and private commercial businesses that operate on publicly owned land through leases. The position will be tasked with providing real estate and financial advisory services for City-owned asset management, as well as lead pivotal new construction projects that will revitalize and enhance the various public amenities within the waterfront. Revitalization of the waterfront has been a key strategic priority for the City for many years. In 2022, the City Council approved a new vision called the “King Harbor Public Amenities Plan”, inclusive of over 40 projects meant to upgrade the recreational and operational needs within the waterfront. Examples of projects listed in the new vision include a new public boat launch, a revitalized Seaside Lagoon, an upgraded pedestrian walkway, and various projects to address sea level rise. The projects will serve as a system within which other revitalization efforts can occur, including attraction of private investment and improving the recreational, educational, and entertainment offerings available to residents and visitors. The Manager will report directly to the Waterfront Director with six direct reports, including two City employees and four contract employees. This role requires a problem solver who is adept at effectively working with Redondo Beach stakeholders and other departmental leaders.
