Management Analyst: This is the full journey-level class in the Management Analyst series. Incumbents develop and implement policies and procedures for a variety of projects and programs within an assigned department, including budget, contract, and human resources administration, management analysis, and program evaluation. Incumbents support the work of departmental management staff by conducting day-to-day administrative support activities and by providing a professional-level resource for organizational, fiscal, human resources, managerial, and operational analyses and studies. The work has technical and programmatic aspects requiring the interpretation and application of policies, procedures, and regulations. Positions 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 of the work unit. This class is distinguished from Senior Management Analyst in that the latter is responsible for technical and functional supervision over professional staff and is capable of performing the most complex duties assigned to a County-wide function.The ideal candidate will possess at least four years of professional experience managing or coordinating projects, programs, operations, or organizational initiatives.
Additionally, possession of a master’s degree from an accredited college or university in business administration, public administration, project management, communications, public relations, or a closely related field is preferred.
