The Village of Essex Junction is proud to announce the hiring of Jess Morris as the new Finance Director. Jess is currently the finance director for the Town of Milton, a position she has held since 2017. She previously held positions with other organizations as a controller, business manager/treasurer, accounts payable specialist, and accounting assistant.
“We are excited to have Jess joining the Village,” said Brad Luck, Essex Junction Recreation & Parks Director and Interim Co-Manager. “She is going to be able to hit the ground running to not only manage our finances but to help work with the Town to begin the disentangling of the Village Town finances and work towards being separate.”
Jess lives in Milton with her husband and son, and grew up in Colchester. She will begin in her new role on February 7. The Village finance department will continue to operate next to the Town finance department at 81 Main Street until the departments are able to operate independently. At such time, the Village finance department will relocate to 2 Lincoln Street.
