KCAW: Sitka Tribe of Alaska hires a full-time general manager

Friday, January 20, 2012  

"The interim general manager at the Sitka Tribe of Alaska can settle into his office. The Tribal Council hired Ted Wright as the full-time general manager at a meeting last night.

Wright has actually been here before. He served as general manager of the Sitka Tribe from 1992 to 1995 and was on the tribal council from 1982 to 1985. Since September, he’s been serving as interim general manager, and he was clear back then that he would seek the position full-time.

“I’ve been wanting to come back for years, really,” he said at Wednesday’s meeting. “It’s just a question of employment in Sitka. It’s hard to find. The kind of work I do is not available very often.”"
