The City of Beachwood is seeking an economic development director.

Brad Sellers has managed day-to-day operations on a contract basis since last year, but is transitioning out of the position as he takes on duties as the new mayor or Warrensville Heights.

A study conducted by SZD Whiteboard last year concluded that a permanant economic development department is needed as the city positions itself to attract businesses here.

The job description asks for someone with a bachelor's degree and at least five years of experience.
