ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding the selection of a proposal from a consulting agency to assist with the recruitment of a City Manager. (Lizandro Galaviz, Acting City Manager)
SUMMARY:
The City of San Luis staff has reached out to consulting agencies to assist with the recruitment of a City Manager. At the moment, staff has received proposals from Prothman and CPS HR Consulting. Prothman is a recruitment firm that specializes in providing national and regional executive recruitment services to cities, counties, districts and other governmental agencies. CPS HR Consulting specializes in the recruitment and selection of executive-level professionals in city, county, state, special districts and non-profit agencies.
The Prothman proposal is for $6,500.00 which includes the fee for sourcing and outreach recruitment, plus the cost of advertising and direct mail. Per the attached proposal, Prothman will post the City Manager's position on the Prothman website and when candidates decide to apply, they will automatically be forwarded to our city online application process. This would give the city an idea of how many applications are being received and the city would be in charge of screening the applications and scheduling interviews.
The CPS HR Consulting proposal has three (3) professional fixed fees. CPS HR Consulting provides professional services for outreach only (includes brochures and advertising) for the amount of $7,500.00. For professional services for partial recruitment (Phases I and II) they charge $19,000.00. For professional services for full recruitment (Phase I, II, III) they charge $25,000.00. These fees would be billed to the city and be paid on a monthly basis.
Staff would like to seek direction from Mayor and City Council to move forward with the recruitment process.
