Human Resources

As the City’s Human Resources Department, we partner with all City Departments in providing professional human resource services. Staff works with employees through the pre-employment, employment, and retirement processes. All job openings are posted on the city’s website, on the city’s bulletin board, and in the newspaper. Applications will be taken only for positions that are open. The City of Rockport is an EOE/ADA employer.

Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, effective March 23, 2020, and until further notice, our office lobbies will be closed to the public. If you wish to apply for a position with the City of Rockport, you will not be able to pick-up or drop off applications in person.  In order to apply, you will need to download the appropriate application from the links below and return it via mail, fax, or email. We appreciate your understanding and will update this posting once our lobbies are re-opened to the public.
