Job Description
The City of Franklin is seeking a Human Resources and Risk Management Director who can guide a growing organization through complex workforce challenges while fostering a positive and accountable workplace culture. We’re looking for an exceptional leader who is:

Experienced in public sector human resources, benefits, and risk management administration

Skilled in employee relations, investigations, and complex retirement program oversight

Able to build strong partnerships with department leaders while strengthening HR systems and processes

The City of Franklin is one of the most desirable communities in the United States, known for its exceptional quality of life, historic charm, and vibrant economy. Located just 15 miles south of Nashville, Franklin blends the character of a historic Southern town with the opportunities of a thriving regional hub. The city has experienced significant growth over the past two decades while remaining deeply committed to preserving its heritage and community identity.

The City of Franklin operates under a Council–Manager form of government. The Board of Mayor and Aldermen serves as the governing body and consists of nine elected members, including the Mayor. Franklin employs approximately 800 staff members and maintains a strong financial position with AAA bond ratings from both S&P and Moody’s.

The ideal candidate will be an experienced public sector human resources professional with strong leadership, operational, and relationship-building skills. The next Director will serve as both a culture steward and a process architect—protecting Franklin’s strong workplace foundation while strengthening HR systems, accountability, and operational consistency. The successful candidate will bring strong expertise in employee relations, benefits administration, and retirement program management, as well as a deep understanding of public sector compliance requirements.

Required qualifications for this position include:

Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Public Administration, or a related field

Five to seven years of progressive executive-level human resources management experience

Professional HR certification such as PHR, SPHR, SHRM-CP, SHRM-SCP, PSHRA-CP, or PSHRA-SCP (or ability to obtain within two years)

Preferred qualifications for this position include:

Master’s degree in Human Resources, Public Administration, Business Administration, or related field

Experience in local government human resources administration

Experience with public sector retirement plans, employee relations investigations, and risk management programs

The salary range for this position is $175,000 – $185,000 DOE/DOQ.
