This position represents a critical leadership opportunity within one of Arkansas' largest and most complex municipal Public Works organizations. The role is open following the promotion of the prior AssistantDirector and reflects the City's continued investment in strong operational leadership, infrastructure stewardship, and long-term service reliability.
Reporting directly to the Director of Public Works, the AssistantDirector serves as a key second-in-command, helping guide a diverse, multi-disciplinary department responsible for the core infrastructure and daily services that support Little Rock's residents, businesses, and neighborhoods. With direct involvement in operational oversight, capital planning, budget development, and organizational leadership, this position plays a central role in translating the City's strategic priorities into effective, on-the-ground execution.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The AssistantDirector of Public Works position offers a rare and compelling opportunity for a seasoned public works or municipal engineering leader to operate at a senior executive level within a full-service city.

MacKenzie Eason & Associates
Assistant director job in Little Rock, AR
AssistantDirector of Public Works (Engineering / Operations) City of Little Rock, Arkansas Mackenzie Eason & Associates has been retained by the City of Little Rock to assist in the recruitment of an AssistantDirector of Public Works. This position represents a critical leadership opportunity within one of Arkansas' largest and most complex municipal Public Works organizations. The role is open following the promotion of the prior AssistantDirector and reflects the City's continued investment in strong operational leadership, infrastructure stewardship, and long-term service reliability.
Reporting directly to the Director of Public Works, the AssistantDirector serves as a key second-in-command, helping guide a diverse, multi-disciplinary department responsible for the core infrastructure and daily services that support Little Rock's residents, businesses, and neighborhoods. With direct involvement in operational oversight, capital planning, budget development, and organizational leadership, this position plays a central role in translating the City's strategic priorities into effective, on-the-ground execution.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The AssistantDirector of Public Works position offers a rare and compelling opportunity for a seasoned public works or municipal engineering leader to operate at a senior executive level within a full-service city. The Department of Public Works touches nearly every aspect of daily life in Little Rock, from streets, drainage, and traffic systems to solid waste, recycling, facilities maintenance, sustainability initiatives, and internal service delivery.
The Department manages a combined 2026 budget of approximately $56.7 million, spanning multiple funds and operational units, and oversees several hundred employees across field operations, engineering, and administrative functions. The AssistantDirector works in close partnership with the Director to ensure operational continuity, fiscal discipline, regulatory compliance, and service excellence across this broad portfolio.
While divisional oversight assignments may evolve over time, the City intentionally rotates AssistantDirector responsibilities to ensure comprehensive exposure to all Public Works functions and to build enterprise-wide leadership capacity. This structure provides an exceptional professional development platform for leaders seeking breadth, complexity, and long-term executive growth within municipal infrastructure management.
Over the next several years, the AssistantDirector will help lead the Department through a number of significant initiatives, including:

Providing executive leadership for complex Public Works operations and capital programs.
Assisting with the development, monitoring, and administration of multi-fund departmental budgets.
Evaluating service delivery methods and implementing process improvements to enhance efficiency, safety, and performance.

Representing the Department before the City Manager, Mayor, Board of Directors, boards and commissions, and the public.
Leading departmental initiatives related to employee engagement, safety culture, and professional development.
