Working closely with the Mayor and Town Council, the Town Manager will help lead the Town in developing a Town-wide strategic plan with an emphasis on funding the rehabilitation and replacement of several Town facilities. The ideal candidate will further strengthen the Town’s finances following the impacts of Hurricane Helene, guide infrastructure and capital priorities, and work with elected officials and staff to establish a clear direction for the community’s future. Success in this role will require strong communication, sound judgment, and the ability to build trust while navigating complex issues.   Waynesville is defined by a strong sense of community, engaged residents, and a deep pride of place. The Town Manager is expected to be visible, accessible, and actively engaged in the community, building the relationships that are essential to effective leadership in a small-town.   In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene in September 2024, Waynesville continues to address significant damage to municipal facilities and infrastructure while working toward long-term financial recovery and stability. The next Town Manager will play a key role in helping the Town continue to move forward by strengthening operations, addressing financial and infrastructure priorities, and positioning the organization for long-term stability.   Waynesville is also experiencing increasing development pressure and demand for municipal services, trends common to many mountain communities in North Carolina. These pressures are often felt acutely at the local level, particularly as the Town works to balance growth with preserving its character and ensuring its infrastructure can support that growth. New residential development and potential annexations are further increasing these demands while shaping the community’s future growth.   The Town Manager will work with elected officials, staff, and community partners to manage responsible growth and implement the goals of the Town’s 2035 Comprehensive Land Use Plan, “Planning with Purpose,” which addresses land use, housing, economic development, transportation, and the preservation of the community’s natural and cultural resources. Internally, with a stable, experienced, and well-educated Leadership Team, the organization is primed for future growth as it looks ahead to the next phase of municipal operations. The next Town Manager will provide leadership to a dedicated staff, strengthen communication between the Council and the organization, and help the Town move from crisis response toward a more stable and strategic future. This position offers a unique opportunity for a skilled public administrator who can bring the experience and perspective of a larger organization while embracing the values and relationships that define this close-knit mountain community—essentially, a “big city manager” who can thrive in a small-town environment.   About the Organization and Position:  The Town of Waynesville operates under a council–manager form of government and consists of a Mayor and four Town Council members, all elected at-large. The Mayor and Council are responsible for establishing policies, adopting local ordinances, and setting the overall direction for the community. Reporting to the Town Council, the Town Manager serves as the chief administrative officer and is responsible for implementing Council policies, overseeing day-to-day municipal operations, and managing the Town’s departments and services. The Town Manager also oversees the Town’s annual budget, which totals $38,947,882 for FY2026 , and leads a workforce of 215 full-time equivalent employees and approximately 75–80 seasonally dependent employees with four direct reports: the Assistant Town Manager, Human Resources Director, Human Resources Coordinator, and Town Clerk. The Town currently does not have a Strategic Plan, though staff have expressed interest in developing one to help guide the organization’s future direction. At the same time, the Town continues to function primarily in crisis recovery mode following the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene in September 2024. Approximately $4.5 million in damage to municipal facilities was identified, and the Town is awaiting FEMA approval for $3.8 million in disaster recovery funds, while FEMA has proposed reimbursement of less than $500,000 to date. As a result, the Town’s fund balance has been depleted to cover immediate expenditures, and additional funding will be needed. Key Position Priorities : Continue the recovery efforts following Hurricane Helene by working with FEMA and the Finance Department to secure reimbursement for storm-related damages, conducting a financial assessment, pursuing grants and other funding sources, and addressing the current budget gap while maintaining essential municipal services. Strengthen communication and trust among the Town Council, administration, and staff by promoting transparency, setting clear expectations, and maintaining appropriate roles between policy leadership and day-to-day operations. Support the organization through employee engagement, leadership development, and team building while gaining the trust of staff, particularly within the Finance Department following significant turnover, and continuing organizational improvements, including evaluating staffing needs and the structure of key departments such as Public Works. Advance infrastructure and capital priorities by developing a comprehensive capital improvement plan and overseeing major projects, including the construction of Fire Station #2, the rehabilitation of the wastewater treatment plant, and other infrastructure needs, while applying strong project management, RFP/RFQ, construction contract management, and civil engineering knowledge. Additionally, the next Town Manager should have working knowledge of electric distribution systems. Guide responsible growth and long-term planning by helping the Council navigate development pressures, infrastructure demands, and community concerns while implementing key planning initiatives, evaluating past commitments, and establishing clear long-term priorities for the Town’s future.   About the Community: The Town of Waynesville, a small mountain town located in Haywood County about 30 miles southwest of Asheville, is commonly known as the "Gateway to the Smokies" because of its proximity to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway. With a population of approximately 10,500 residents, Waynesville maintains a small-town feel while still serving as the county seat and the largest town west of Asheville.   Despite its modest size, Waynesville is a regional hub for shopping, dining, arts, and tourism in Haywood County. It is especially known for its charming downtown district centered along Main Street, which features historic brick sidewalks, scenic mountain views, and a collection of locally owned businesses that give the town much of its character. Downtown serves as the cultural and commercial heart of the community, with art galleries, boutiques, restaurants, breweries, and coffee shops all within an easy walking distance. Throughout the year, community events, street festivals, and seasonal decorations bring energy to the area, making it both a gathering place for residents and a popular stop for visitors exploring the Smoky Mountains. Just below downtown along Richland Creek is Frog Level , a historic district that once served as the town’s railroad and industrial hub in the late 1800s. In recent years, the area has experienced a revitalization, transforming into a lively neighborhood filled with breweries, restaurants, galleries, and locally owned shops. While it has grown into a vibrant extension of downtown, Frog Level still reflects its historic roots and remains a favorite spot for both locals and visitors to gather.   One of the biggest draws of Waynesville is its strong arts and festival culture. The town hosts several annual events that bring residents and visitors together. The Appalachian True Heritage Festival is a two-day celebration of the rich history, traditional crafts, and vibrant mountain culture of Western North Carolina. The Folkmoot International Dance Festival , recognized as North Carolina’s official international folklife festival, features dance groups from around the world performing in and around downtown each summer. Other popular events include the Apple Harvest Festival in the fall, the Church Street Art & Craft Show, and regular summer street dances featuring live mountain music and traditional clogging. Downtown galleries also participate in monthly events like “Art After Dark,” where shops stay open late for art demonstrations, music, and social gatherings.   For those who enjoy the outdoors, Waynesville offers easy access to some of the most scenic landscapes in the Southeast. The town sits near Great Smoky Mountains National Park , Pisgah National Forest , and the Blue Ridge Parkway , making it a convenient base for hiking, waterfall hunting, scenic drives, and camping. Nearby destinations such as Lake Junaluska provide walking trails and water recreation, while winter activities like skiing are available at Cataloochee Ski Area.   Like many communities in western North Carolina, Waynesville was affected by Hurricane Helene, which brought intense rainfall and flooding across the mountains, causing landslides, washed-out roads, and widespread infrastructure damage throughout the region. Waynesville did not experience the level of devastation seen in some nearby mountain communities, but it still faced significant flooding and infrastructure impacts. Floodwaters damaged several businesses, particularly in the Frog Level district, and some bridges and roads were temporarily closed while repairs were made. The storm disrupted tourism for a time and required repairs to local infrastructure, though the town avoided the catastrophic destruction experienced in several nearby valleys and river communities.   Since the storm, the area has been steadily rebuilding and recovering. Efforts across western North Carolina have focused on repairing roads, restoring sections of the Blue Ridge Parkway, and reopening parks and businesses that were damaged by flooding. Local businesses in Waynesville have gradually reopened, and tourism has returned as visitors continue to travel to the mountains for hiking, festivals, and fall foliage. While recovery has been a long process, it has also highlighted the strong volunteer spirit and community support for which the region is well known.   Demographically, Waynesville is a relatively small and stable community that has experienced modest growth over the past decade. The town has a higher-than-average percentage of older residents—about 26% of the population is age 65 or older—reflecting its appeal as a retirement destination in the mountains.
