City commission approves search agreement to help recruit Utility Director candidates

The Madison City Commission has approved an agreement with a search organization to help find candidates for the city’s Utility Director position.  During their meeting Monday, commissioners approved a contingency search agreement with gpac, LLC.  City Administrator Jameson Berreth said that gpac can help with recruiting candidates for the vacant Utility Director position.

Berreth said that the city has been advertising for the position for several months but has not been successful in finding the right person for the job.  He said that the money the city has saved from not having someone in the position could be used to pay for the service.  Berreth said that gpac has around four-thousand recruiters around the country to help in the search for candidates.
