The CFO/Treasurer Search

The Miami Valley Career Technology Center is seeking qualified applicants for the position of CFO/Treasurer to succeed Mrs. Debbie Gossett who is retiring after a distinguished 26 year career. The Board is seeking an effective and experienced leader in education, administration, and school finance with a preferred start date of August 1, 2017.



Applicant Criteria

The Board of Education is seeking a candidate who is an experienced leader and willing to work collaboratively with the Board, Administration, community, staff and students. The position of CFO/Treasurer requires an Ohio Treasurer's license and a post-secondary degree, preferably in accounting, economics, finance or a business-related field.



The Community and the District

The Miami Valley Career and Technology Center is located in Englewood, Ohio and serves 27 area high schools from five counties covering approximately 4,000 square miles. The school districts are a mixture of rural, suburban and urban communities, so MVCTC students represent a richly diverse student population. MVCTC offers over 40 career technical programs for high school juniors and seniors, career-technical programs for students in satellite programs in grades 6-12, and lifelong learning opportunities for adults through its Adult Education programs. Working with local business and industry partners, MVCTC is helping to attract and create jobs for our region's economy. A more detailed presentation of MVCTC programs and member districts can be found at www.mvctc.com



Student Enrollment

The MVCTC serves more than 3,400 students in grades 6-12 on the main campus and in 15 satellite locations around the Miami Valley region. The district also serves more than 5,000 adults through post-secondary work force development programs, short-term programs, ABLE/GED classes, testing facilities, and business consulting services.



Buildings

The main campus consists of four large buildings enclosing more than 450,000 square feet and is situated on approximately 220 acres. In collaboration with the Ohio School Facilities Commission, the MVCTC is currently involved in the active planning process with the intent to remodel and expand the majority of the main campus' current facilities. The district will be asking for voter approval of a combined bond initiative and levy effort on May 2, 2017.
