TBC was pleased to represent the Town of Woodside on the recruitment for a new Town Manager to replace the irreplaceable Kevin Bryant who will be retiring in May. Last night, the Town Council appointed current Yreka City Manager Jason Ledbetter as his successor.
Woodside Mayor Brian Dombkowski offered, “When I think about the energy and engagement that is needed to be successful in this role, the experience and skillset necessary to lead on a number of pivotal initiatives that are before us, and the leadership and vision needed to help our community manifest a new vision for the Town going forward, I am very confident that Jason brings the right level of energy, experience and engagement that will serve Woodside exceptionally well in the years ahead.”
Jason brings over 25 years of team and project management experience from local government and private industry to Woodside. A native of Napa, California, Jason began his professional career in the wine industry, developing a keen business sense and an appreciation for customer service excellence along the way. As City Manager in Yreka, he has focused on key initiatives relating to revenue generation, housing, fire resiliency and water security. Prior to his tenure as City Manager, Jason served as Director of General Services for the County of Siskiyou.
Our candidate holds a Master’s degree in Environmental Engineering from UC Riverside and a Bachelor’s degree in Viticulture and Enology from UC Davis. Jason will begin his new role in Woodside this May.
Recruiters: Teri Black & Suzanne Mason
