Kevin Brandenburg Named Escambia County Employee Of The Year
January 1, 2022
Kevin Brandenburg is the 2021 Escambia County Employee of the year.
Brandenburg is a fleet management specialist in the Parks and Recreation department. He has worked with Escambia County since June 2014 and was previously selected as employee of the month for April 2021.
As the fleet maintenance specialist, most of Brandenburg’s time is focused on equipment maintenance.
His recent attendance at a school playground installation on behalf of the county has allowed the Parks and Recreation department to install county playgrounds and save money in the department. He is also a leader on an in-house team repairing sports field lighting and installing multiple baseball and football scoreboards across the county. By completing small in-house repairs on various projects, he saves the Parks and Recreation department and the county as a whole thousands of dollars, which in turn can be leveraged and used in various other locations for enhancements and upgrades.
“It is a blessing to have someone who can work together with other departments to complete tasks,” said Parks and Recreation Director Michael Rhodes. “Kevin is the example of a true team player; he is always thinking outside the box and communicating in a respectful and insightful manner. Kevin is an incredible asset to our Parks and Recreation Department, and an invaluable member on the Escambia County team.”

Congratulations Kevin! Much deserved to an all around great guy and hard worker!
Kevin and I worked together several years ago and there were several times that we thought a vehicle was dead but Kevin revived it, not just once but several times. Kevin’s wrench and God’s hand kept us going. CONGRATULATIONS KEVIN..
Kevin is also really good at clearing parking lots off duty with the use of his personal truck mounted 150+dB pest displacement system; although engaging the system is like a bat signal to other’s with similar auto-mounted systems.
Kevin is a great asset to the county. Very thorough, professional and honest! Wish we could’ve worked together longer at Pensacola Bay transportation. Excellent choice!!!
Congratulations Kevin. I know you made you family proud!.
you should see how he got a track hoe stuck in a swamp. no one could do it better
You should see him cross a river in a S10 Blazer
I have known him for 19 years and consider him a friend and a honest man. CONGRATULATIONS Kevin!! They could not have made a better choice.
He also can drive a tow truck.
You think that is something, you should see him work on a beaver dam with an excavator.
he looks like a very hard worker and I’m willing to bet he can get the job done with his eyes closed. best wishes for a brighter future in 2022 happy New Year sir
