The inclusion of this updated class specification is recommended pursuant to Section 2-3.502 of Article 5 and Section 2-3.603 of Article 6, Chapter 3, Title 2 of the Redondo Beach Municipal Code, which authorizes the Mayor and City Council to set forth, from time to time, the class titles and specifications for job classifications. This highly technical position requires domain-specific knowledge of information technology systems specific to the City as well as the knowledge to supervise technical staff. Due to the rapid rate of technological advancement, up to date classification specifications are crucial to the successful recruitment of qualified staff.
Staff has prepared the job classification specification in comparison with the duties, expectations, and requirements of Information Technology Operations/Infrastructure Supervisor class specifications from other Cities, and has included the City’s standard language and formatting.
