Healthy People in Healthy Communities

Traditional public
health concerns such as disease outbreaks, environmental hazards and access to
health care are compounded by contemporary concerns such as: economic
disenfranchisement and homelessness, racism, sexual and reproductive health and
rights, crime, violence, and substance abuse. Each of these poses a threat to
public health and wellness and calls for innovative solutions, in close
partnership with impacted communities. For more information about our Alameda

THE POSITION
Under direction, to
provide professional level administrative, operational and organizational
services to County departments and agencies; to plan and conduct a variety of
studies and inquiries; to facilitate the implementation of a wide variety of
programs and projects; and to do related work as required.
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES
Administrative Specialist I/II is a
flexibly-staffed class series with the work normally performed at the II level,
but with initial selection possible at the I (or entry) level. Incumbents hired
at the I level will be expected to gain experience and demonstrate proficiency
which qualifies them to promote to the II level after the equivalent of one
year full time service. Appointment at the I level will not be extended beyond
one year.
Responsibilities of this broad administrative
series normally encompass a variety of activities, such as planning and
conducting organizational and policy studies, performing activities related to
personnel, purchasing, contracting and budgeting and overseeing functions and
staff in administrative services areas. Administrative Specialists may also
supervise the work of a small support staff on a project or day-to-day-basis.
Although the work is diverse, all positions are typically characterized by all
of the following elements:
• The necessity for independent decision making;
• Project, activity and/or functional planning,
oversight and evaluation;
• The ability to significantly influence
departmental policies, functions or service delivery activities; and
• The limited availability or nature of
supervision.
This series is distinguished from the Financial
Services Specialist class series in that the primary responsibilities of the
latter classes are in the areas of budget development and administration,
financial analysis and projections and/or contract and grants administration,
with general administrative services responsibilities being of secondary
importance. It is further distinguished from Supervising Administrative
Specialist which provides second- level supervision for administrative support
and operations staff and functions.
