The Town of Drayton Valley has appointed Troy Grant to the position of chief administrative officer (CAO).
Grant has served as the town’s general manager of town services, where officials say he demonstrated strong leadership, dedication and a clear commitment to the community.
“I am honoured to take on the role of chief administrative officer for the Town of Drayton Valley,” Grant comments. “It has been a privilege to serve this community, and I look forward to working with council, staff and residents to support the town’s continued growth and success.”
Grant offers over 25 years of senior leadership experience spanning municipal government, military service and private sector development. Before joining the town, he served as general manager of community services in Sturgeon County, where he steered a broad portfolio of programs and services while prioritizing transparent communication with council and the public.
