Southeast Area Animal Control Authority is seeking an Executive Director who will have full administrative authority and oversee the direction of SEAACA's operations including field, care center, veterinarian clinic, and licensing programs and services. The ED reports directly to the Board of Commissioners and leads the management team to shepherd SEAACA's resources and develop policies, operational priorities and strategic projects. The ED will serve as the liaison between SEAACA and the public and ensure quality animal care and public services are provided in accordance with SEAACA's mission, goals, and board-driven philosophy.

With the support of their Board of Commissioners and dedicated staff, and in cooperation with the public and rescue partners, SEAACA is committed to providing high-quality animal care and control to the 14 cities they serve. Across five divisions - Animal Health, Animal Care, Animal Control, Adoption & Community Engagement and Customer Service & Licensing – they deliver for animals and the people in their communities. From cats and dogs to snakes, roosters, rabbits, turtles and everything in between, the SEAACA team manages approximately 1,000 animal intakes a month. With an annual budget of $9M and 75 authorized staff members, SEAACA serves a population of roughly 900,000.

"Put simply, no other municipal service generates the passion, emotion, and complexity of animal care and control. Your ability and agility in navigating competing priorities, regulatory requirements, the health and well-being of animals in our care, the wellbeing of the staff team and public safety will be a daily exercise. And for the right person, it will also be incredibly rewarding and satisfying." — Hon. Marco Barcena, Chairman, SEAACA Board of Commissioners
