President & CEO - Land of Lincoln Economic Development Committee (Springfield)
Who: Land of Lincoln Economic Development Committee. The goal of the EDC is to create a more vibrant, diverse, multi-generational community through economic development efforts that attract and retain a broader range of stable employment opportunities. This is accomplished through leveraging Sangamon County and the City of Springfield’s historical significance, strong education system and choices, state-of-the-art medical facilities, geographic location, low cost-of-living and broad human outreach initiatives. The Land of Lincoln Economic Development Committee (EDC) was created in Springfield and Sangamon County, Illinois, late in 2017 with the expectations that it will form a 501-c3, public-private, economic development corporation. After an in-depth analysis of the current economic development efforts, regional leaders saw the need to form an entity that is laser-focused on primary job creation and retention and economic growth for the region.
What: The President/CEO of the Economic Development Committee will be responsible for the recruitment of new industries/businesses to the Sangamon County Region and plays an important role on the committee in achieving overall goals and objectives. This position will report to a Board of Trustees and is responsible for implementing economic development initiatives in collaboration with local business leaders, state and local government officials, site selection consultants, and staff. Specific economic development responsibilities include those associated with entrepreneurship development, workforce development, business retention and expansion, business recruitment and marketing. As this is a newly created position, it offers a unique opportunity to shape and influence this start-up corporation into a catalyst for economic growth and prosperity for the region.
