City Manager, Google Fiber

Portland, Oregon Area, US - Information Services, Internet

As a City Manager, you will play the lead role in supporting and advising your local Google Fiber team. Your job will be to support our local outreach to city and state government, utilities, businesses, and organizations. Since our go-to-market strategy is grassroots focused and dependent on joint programs and events with local partners, your role is integral to the overall business of Google Fiber in this market. The role requires a strategic perspective on the business, the ability to identify, build and cultivate working partnerships with local organizations, and a focus on execution while maintaining deep community relationships.



Not all cities where we're exploring hiring a team will necessarily become Google Fiber cities. If you're hired and your city doesn't become a Google Fiber city, you will continue to play a role in an existing Fiber city or Google headquarters. Due to the dynamic nature of local government, utilities, and organizations, we’re looking for flexible, senior leaders.



Responsibilities

• Be the point person for Google Fiber in the market and help develop the business strategy.


• Lead a local team focused on community affairs, business outreach, and customer acquisition and retention.


• Support key day-to-day working relationships with the local government, state, utilities and key businesses and organizations with Public Affairs and Community Managers.


• Work cross-functionally with Outside Plant Engineering, Customer Service, Product Marketing and PR in order to fully leverage broader corporate resources.
