The town of Andover seeks a forward-thinking, collaborative municipal leader to serve as Director of Administrative Services—a pivotal role at the intersection of finance, operations, and people strategy.
Reporting to the Chief Administrative and Financial Officer and working closely with the Town Manager, this position leads efforts in budgeting, financial forecasting, data analysis, and policy development. You’ll also partner with the Chief People Officer to support organizational development, workforce planning, and HR analytics that help drive a high-performing, inclusive workplace.
This is more than an administrative role—it’s a chance to shape the systems, strategies, and culture that make local government more effective and responsive. You’ll streamline internal processes, contribute to major decisions, and collaborate across departments to improve the employee and resident experience.

Proven leadership in managing complex projects, excellent communication skills, and a high level of accuracy in handling complex data are essential. Attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment will be highly valued.
If you’re ready to make a lasting impact in a vibrant, innovative community, we want to hear from you. Apply by sending your resume and cover letter to Brittney.Lavoie@andoverma.us with the subject line: Director of Administrative Services.
