Jane Mager brings over 30 years of experience in corporate and non-profit accounting and leadership to the role of Acting Chief Financial Officer at the City of Flint. Mager holds a bachelor’s degree in Accounting and a master’s degree in Management and Strategy.

“Jane Mager brings a wealth of experience to the City of Flint, and I’m confident that we are in capable hands as we continue through this year’s budget process together,” Mayor Sheldon Neeley said. “I’m proud that we continue to attract seasoned professionals like Mager who come to the City of Flint with the goal of giving back to the community. I’m thankful for her service to our great city.”

Most recently, Mager worked for five years as Financial Controller for a local trucking company in Flint Township. Her career has spanned the automotive, facility maintenance, property management, media, and transportation industries.

Mager started at the City of Flint in October 2022 as a temporary employee through the Robert Half Agency, covering for the former Deputy CFO during a maternity leave.
