About the role

The City of Barstow seeks a dynamic Deputy Director of Parks & Recreation to lead the next chapter of community services, programs, and partnerships. You will shape services, strengthen a team, and help create places that bring residents together. Under administrative direction, you will oversee budgets, capital projects, contracts, and interagency collaborations while ensuring accessible, safe, and vibrant parks and programs for all ages. This is an at-will, city management position.

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.
