LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

Attachment: RW Management Group (1222 : Search Firm for Position of County Administrator)
Mrs. GinNeal McVay
Human Resource Manager
Okaloosa County
601-B North Pearl Street
Crestview, FL 32536
Dear Mrs. McVay:
RW Management Group, Inc. (RW) is pleased to submit this proposal to facilitate the recruitment for a
new County Administrator for the Okaloosa County, Florida. We have conducted a number of
successful municipal administrator/manager recruitments in the past. Our executive search and
management consulting staff have a broad background in recruitment and related personnel matters,
including:
• Serving as a former Village Manager/City Administrator
• Human Resource Specialists
• Municipal Labor Negotiator
• Executive Director of the Wisconsin City/County Management Association
We believe that this makes us uniquely qualified to facilitate your search for a qualified County
Administrator, for Okaloosa County.
The County is wise to retain the services of a professional executive recruitment firm to assist its search
for a County Administrator. The current economic challenges, the sale of homes and two family
incomes has added to the difficulty in finding qualified individuals for municipalities. However, by
conducting a national search along with our vast network of potential candidates and personal
knowledge of many individuals we can provide the County with a thorough search and the ability to
match candidate qualifications with the Counties specific needs. As with every municipality Okaloosa
County has a culture that not every Administrator will fit into. In selecting a new administrator, it is
critical to find a fit that will strengthen your management team
