Park City Announces Recruitment for Two New Deputy City Managers 

Park City, Utah – Park City has begun recruiting efforts to fill two Deputy City Manager (DCM) positions, critical leadership roles within the municipal organization. The two DCMs will oversee day-to-day operations, serve as strategic advisors to the City Council and City Manager, and support department heads, residents, and stakeholders in order to meet Park City’s goals and plans. 

“This is a great opportunity to continue to deliver the highest-quality services to our residents,” said City Manager Matt Dias. “Recruiting two key positions simultaneously allows us to match candidates’ strengths to complement each other and our organizational needs. We’re looking for two steady and proven leaders, with expertise in areas such as planning, building, transportation, policy development, public-private partnerships, operations, and more.” 

This recruitment effort comes as Deputy City Manager Sarah Pearce has announced her plans to retire in April 2025 after five years of dedicated service to Park City. 

“While we congratulate and support Sarah on her impending retirement, her presence and leadership will be difficult to replace,” said Mayor Nann Worel. “Her collaborative style and significant contributions to City operations, regional transportation solutions, and other key areas have been exemplary. Beyond her professional achievements, Sarah is a joy to work with and a positive force in our organization.” 

Park City, Utah, is a dynamic mountain town of 8,500 residents in the Wasatch Mountains just 35 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City. It’s a former mining camp-turned-world-famous ski destination with two top-ranked ski resorts, Park City Mountain and Deer Valley Resort, a Historic Main Street, the Sundance Film Festival, and exciting nightlife, dining, and live entertainment. A venue city for the 2002 Winter Olympic Games, Park City will welcome the world again in 2034. 

Park City invites qualified professionals to apply to join our vibrant team and community. Applications will be accepted until filled. For more information, view the DCM job posting here.
