Nature of Work
The fundamental reason this classification
exists is to effectively manage the fiscal and human resources of multiple
departments while ensuring that analytical and managerial support is provided
to department heads. The work responsibilities include preparing a consolidated
cabinet-level or multiple-department operational budget, overseeing the
procurement of services, purchasing equipment and supplies, and efficiently
managing payroll and personnel actions while supervising two or more employees.
Additionally, this position may serve as the department’s liaison to the
legislative body and city council, effectively manage the financial accounting
of enterprise funds, and proactively seek and administer grants to support
departmental initiatives. This classification is distinguished from the
Administrative Officer due to its extensive range of administrative duties, the
complexity and volume of budgets managed, and the diverse range of employees
within the department. The incumbent in this position is instrumental in
overseeing cabinet-level departmental budgets, making strategic purchasing
decisions, and managing personnel transactions. Typically, this employee
reports directly to a department head or assistant department head.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in business administration,
public administration, or a closely related field and four (4) years of budget
management experience in purchasing, payroll administration, or grants research
and management, including two (2) years of supervisory experience.
NOTE: Qualifying education, training and
experience that provide the requisite knowledge, skills and abilities to
perform the job will be considered.
