Mayor Adams told senior officials in his administration Wednesday that he has received at least one offer for a job once he leaves City Hall<\/a> at the end of the year, according to four sources with direct knowledge of the matter.<\/p>\n

Adams, who last month abandoned his reelection bid<\/a> amid continuing controversies stemming from his federal corruption indictment, made the revelation in a virtual morning meeting with top staff. He didn\u2019t share details or say whether his next job will be in the public or private sector, the sources, who were on the call, told the Daily News.<\/p>\n

One of the sources, who, like the others, spoke on condition of anonymity, said the mayor indicated there might be more than one job offer on the table for him. Two sources told The News the mayor did say the offer, or offers, he has received would amount to an opportunity \u201cof a lifetime\u201d second to being mayor of New York City.<\/p>\n

Spokespeople for Adams didn\u2019t immediately return requests for comment after the private meeting.<\/p>\n

Starting at the end of the summer, advisers to President Trump were involved in talks about offering Adams a job in the Trump administration, potentially an ambassadorship to Saudi Arabia<\/a>, sources have said. Such an arrangement would have been contingent on Adams committing to ditching his independent reelection bid, according to sources.<\/p>\n

The aim of the Trump team\u2019s effort was to get Adams out of the race<\/a> in order to maximize independent candidate Andrew Cuomo\u2019s chances of beating Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani, whose tax-the-rich agenda has unnerved the president and his allies as well as local business communities.<\/p>\n

There have also been talks about Adams getting a private sector job in exchange for dropping out of the race, as\u00a0previously reported<\/a>\u00a0by The News.<\/p>\n

In the wake of those talks, Adams ended his reelection campaign<\/a> on Sept. 28. He will leave office on Jan. 1.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s Department of Justice quashed Adams\u2019 corruption indictment this past spring as part of a controversial arrangement that many believe has left the mayor beholden to the president.<\/p>\n
