Crestwood Attorney, Chamber of Commerce Director Jobs Available

Crestwood is officially seeking new legal counsel, and the Crestwood-Sunset Hills Chamber is hiring a new director.

As the interview process for a new Crestwood city administrator gets rolling, the city's aldermen have officially put out a request for new legal services, too. 

Robert J. Golterman, who's served the city in various capacities for more than 20 years, announced in September he planned to leave his post at the end of the calendar year, or once a replacement has been chosen. Crestwood aldermen voted Tuesday night to put out their formal request for qualified applicants. The job posting went live on the Crestwood city website Wednesday afternoon.

The proposal was modeled after similar drafts by other municipalities, including University City, Golterman said.

Applicants have a 45-day window to submit their qualifications. Aldermen will appoint a committee to review the submissions.
