About the role

The City of Atlanta is seeking an Emergency Preparedness Director within the Department of Public Works to lead strategic planning, coordination, and execution of local emergency preparedness initiatives. You will oversee safety, incident response, and business continuity aligned with city strategies. You will develop interdepartmental liaisons, manage crisis responses, and provide timely briefings to senior leadership.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
