    John Resha

    Longtime executive leader John Resha starts role in May 

    City Manager Brad Miyake announced Tuesday the city has hired John Resha to serve as director for the Finance & Asset Management Department. Resha has worked and lived in the Puget Sound region for more than two decades, holding positions at private, public and nonprofit agencies in finance, strategic planning, policy and executive management. 

    Most recently, Resha served as chief operating officer and president for Devco Residential Group, a private equity firm focused on housing and affordable housing with a portfolio of more than $2.5 billion. Prior to that, he was chief administrative and financial officer for King Country Metro Transit and was chief policy officer for the King County Council for 10 years. In addition, Resha served stints on both the Lake Forest Park and Redmond city councils. His career history includes managing multi-billion-dollar budgets, multi-year business and strategic planning, leading Lean transformation initiatives and establishing systems for data-driven organizational performance management. 

    “Bellevue plans for the future and our financial planning as a city is a key part of ensuring our success,” said City Manager Brad Miyake. “We were pleased to find someone for this role in John who understands local government and regional partnerships, is skilled in financial strategy and executive management and can help us continue and enhance our track record of thoughtful budgeting and innovative operational strategies.”

    Resha has a bachelor’s degree in business administration and global management from American Continental University and a Master of Business Administration from Western Governors University.

    Resha starts with the city on May 22. The Finance & Asset Management Department oversees business taxes and licenses, accounting, budgeting and vendor services/purchasing. The department also manages the city's fleet, real property and land survey functions. The department serves both internal and external stakeholders as it ensures the efficient, effective use of both finances and physical assets.
