The ITCTC is looking for a qualified and experienced leader who can create, oversee and administer complex projects and programs and deliver results for our community. The ideal candidate will have expertise in transportation issues and/or experience administering multi-faceted programs and workng within the metropolitan planning process. However, we are primarily looking for a person with a strong vision, excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to coordinate community partners and implement programs from the ground up.

It is an exciting time for transportation planning in Tompkins County with the retirement of two of the three full-time staff of the ITCTC and the opportunity to envision a robust, results-driven transportation program. The Transportation Planning Director will lead that work and craft a team that will be responsible for making the vision a reality.

The ITCTC offices are located in the City of Ithaca, centrally located in the beautiful Finger Lakes Region of Upstate New York. Ithaca is home to Cornell University and Ithaca College in an area surrounded by Cayuga Lake, and dramatic gorges and waterfalls. It has a small-town atmosphere while showcasing the qualities of a larger city through a diverse and active arts and culture scene.

The deadline for applications is April 23 at 5:00 PM. Tompkins County offers a generous suite of benefits. Please see complete job posting and requirements at https://www.tompkinscountyny.gov/All-Departments/Human-Resources/Employment-Opportunities
