DIRECTOR OF SPECIAL PROJECTS
A commissioner with an initiative that fits nowhere on the organisation chart still needs somewhere to put the person running it, and this is that title.
It is a genuine catch-all. The projects change with the administration and with the department, so there is nothing stable for a specification to describe, and the appointment is made directly.
What the official title list records
- Class of service: Unclassified
- Work week: No Limit
- Salary code: X98 — A 9x code is a special or flat rate set outside the step schedules, so no range is published.
