The search for the next Paradise Valley Town Manager has begun.
Paradise Valley Town Council on Thursday approved a formal Request for Proposal from interested executive search firms to assist the municipality in finding its successor to Town Manager Jim Bacon.
Firms have until May 26 to offer their services to the Town of Paradise Valley, the RFP states.
Town officials say they expect the total cost of recruitment to be between $15,000 and $30,000 and expect semi-finalists for the position to be identified in early fall.
The timeline for the entire hiring process is 26 to 42 weeks, but according to Town Manager Jim Bacon the process will most likely take 34 weeks.
