The City of Austin is launching a national search for its next police chief through the recruiting firm Mosaic Public Partners.
City Manager T.C. Broadnax, who began his new role on May 6, highlighted the hiring of a permanent police chief as one of his priorities for his first 100 days.
“Public safety is of paramount importance, not just to me and the mayor and city council, but to Austin as a whole. My commitment to this community is to find the absolute best candidate for this critical role,” said Broadnax. “I want to ensure that I bring forward someone who will build trust and foster a culture of transparency and accountability.”
The position will remain open until June 10.
