The Springfield City Council is committed to fostering an environment that values diversity and inclusion. Springfield is a diverse community and we celebrate diversity of culture, background, experience and thought.

Who We Are Seeking

We are seeking dedicated individuals who want to offer their talents, experience and perspectives to make a difference in the Springfield community! We are seeking authentic individuals from all different backgrounds and perspectives who are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive community.

What to Consider When Applying

Studies have shown that women and minorities are less likely to apply when they haven’t seen people they identify with in a certain role or career. And, individuals often don’t apply because they believe they are unable to perform every task in the job description. We are most interested in finding the best candidate for the job, and that candidate may be one who comes from a less traditional background. The City will consider any equivalent combination of knowledge, skills, education and experience to meet minimum qualifications. If you are interested in applying, we encourage you to think broadly about your background and skill set for the role.

An Equal Employment Opportunity Employer

It is the policy of the City of Springfield to provide equal employment opportunity without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or genetic information.
