Bill Bertera

The Water Environment Federation (WEF) has initiated a search for a new executive director to lead the 81-year old non-profit technical and educational water quality organization. The new director is expected to take office in early 2011.

Bill Bertera, WEF’s executive director for the past ten years, has announced that he will be leaving the organization effective December 31, 2010.  Over the months ahead, Bertera will maintain his role, with programs and operations continuing uninterrupted.

The WEF Board of Trustees will select an executive search firm to manage the search process. Once selected, the Board expects to work closely with the chosen firm to implement an effective open process, with the goal of having a new executive director in place by early 2011. The new executive director, in partnership with the Board of Trustees, will be responsible for leading the organization to realize its strategic vision, serve its membership, and successfully lead the business operations.

The new executive director will oversee a staff of nearly 100 and will be based in the organization’s Alexandria, Va. headquarters.
