RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPOINT Denise Rojas on an interim basis to the position of Risk Manager at Step 6 of the salary range effective April 1, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The position is currently budgeted. No increased costs result from this action.

BACKGROUND:

Sharon Hymes-Offord is retiring as Risk Manager after more than 10 years of service with Contra Costa County. The primary task of the Risk Manager is to conserve human, financial, physical and natural assets against the effects of loss and recommend strategies for protecting the County against all financial exposures and risks, including insurance or budget assumption of risk. The County will be undertaking an executive search to fill this critical position. While this search is conducted, Assistant Risk Manager Denise Rojas has agreed to serve in an interim capacity.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

To ensure Ms. Rojas receives a minimum 5% increase while serving in the interim assignment, I am recommending that she be placed at Step 6 of Risk Manager.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Risk Manager position will be vacant.
