DEFINITION
To act as an analytical resource in support of assigned County departments in the budget review, analysis, and monitoring process; to serve as the liaison between the County Executive Office and assigned departments; to support assigned departments in strategic planning, organizational and policy review, staffing considerations, and other assigned projects by providing research, guidance, and tactical advice; to conduct research, data collection, and analysis for Countywide programs and special projects; and to act as a positive and effective team member.
DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
The Management Analyst job series represents professional positions responsible for establishing, maintaining, and monitoring a variety of administrative policies, budgets, fiscal processes, and organizational and legislative issues on a Countywide basis, as well as serving as a liaison to departments and providing support to departments as a representative of the County Executive Office. While typically allocated to the County Executive Office, positions with oversight for a major Countywide program(s), including budget and contract administration, policy development and implementation, and the management and coordination of work assigned to multiple departments on behalf of the County Executive, may also be allocated at the department level with CEO approval.
This series is distinguished from the Administrative and Fiscal Officer series in that the latter is primarily responsible for managing the budget and administration process for an assigned department/division, whereas classifications in the Management Analyst series review, coordinate, and manage these processes across multiple departments in support of the Countywide budget or a Countywide program.
This is the full journey-level class within the Management Analyst series. This class is distinguished from the Management Analyst I by the assignment of the full range of duties. Employees at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise and are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies within the County Executive Office. Incumbents work independently or as a member of a team and may provide training and work direction to lower-level personnel. Positions in this class are flexibly staffed and are normally filled by advancement from the entry level.
This class is distinguished from the Senior Management Analyst in that the latter is the advanced journey-level in the series and serves as a first-line supervisor to professional staff. Incumbents at the Senior level also have program responsibility for specialized programs/projects, with a greater level or responsibility, higher complexity of duties assigned, including sensitive fiscal and policy issues or projects, assignments of multiple fiscally complex budgets, or projects, more independence of action taken, and greater scope of public contact than those at the entry and journey levels.
