One of Minnesota’s fastest growing cities, Woodbury is the state’s 8th largest city. The population of close to 76,000 is projected to reach 88,000 by 2040 and is expected to continue attracting new residents for years to come. It is in close proximity to major employment centers, as well as the St. Croix River Valley, providing a beautiful natural setting and year-round recreational opportunities. Known for its attractive residential neighborhoods, more than 160 miles of multi-use trails connect Woodbury. The city contains approximately 3,100 acres of parkland and eight small lakes, most with public parks and pathways. The city is consistently recognized nationally as a great place to live, work and thrive. We believe a diverse workforce creates a better spirit of community, shared ideas and increased creativity. As such, we encourage applications from women, people of color, members of diverse gender identities and other who may contribute to further diversification of ideas. Strategies to advance workforce equity benefit all employees and the organization as a whole. Open and inclusive employment practices and policies can help attract and retain talented staff from all groups and help us respond appropriately to changing needs and goals in the community.
