Mayor Zohran Mamdani reappoints Doug Lipari to strengthen workforce development, apprenticeships and access to quality jobs across New York City.
NEW YORK — Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani has reappointed Doug Lipari as Executive Director of the NYC Office of Talent and Workforce Development, placing him at the center of the administration’s efforts to expand access to good-paying jobs.
The September 17 announcement highlights a focus on fair wages, apprenticeships and stronger connections between public investment and employment opportunities for New Yorkers.
Lipari helped launch Community Hiring, which uses City contracts to create employment and apprenticeship opportunities for low-income residents, including people living in NYCHA housing. He also leads negotiations on Project Labor Agreements that establish wages, benefits and working conditions on major City construction projects.
Deputy Mayor for Economic Justice Julie Su emphasized that workforce programs should connect people to actual good jobs through partnerships with employers, unions and educational institutions.
Lipari, who has led NYC Talent since August 2025, said he would work to strengthen the city’s workforce system and support economic mobility.
For New Yorkers seeking a more secure future, the announcement points to an ongoing priority: making training, public spending and employer partnerships translate into accessible career opportunities.
