Administrative Analyst I/II - CAO Economic Development

Under general supervision, performs responsible administrative, organizational, systems, budgetary, statistical, public information and community liaison work and other analyses and staff support related to department, division, or County-wide activities and functions; makes recommendations for action and assists in policy and procedure development and implementation; performs related work as assigned.

 

 

Administrative Analyst I is the entry level in this professional administrative support series. Initially under close supervision, incumbents perform the more routine administrative support and analysis duties while learning County policies and procedures and specific techniques related to administrative analysis. As experience is gained, assignments become more diversified and are performed under more general supervision. This class is alternately staffed with Administrative Analyst II and incumbents may advance to the higher level after gaining experience and demonstrating proficiency which meet the qualifications of the higher level class.

Administrative Analyst II is the journey level class of the series, fully competent to perform responsible and difficult analytical work in varied departmental staff support areas as designated by management staff. Projects may include statistical analyses, operations support, policy, procedure and budget development, or program implementation and administration, or other areas which may be County-wide or specific to a department. Incumbents are expected to exercise independent judgment in selecting study approach and analytical techniques, and in making sound recommendations. This class is distinguished from Senior Administrative Analyst in that the latter performs more complex analytical work with greater County-wide impact or with specific programmatic implications, often with the implied authority of the County Administrative Officer.

 

Specified positions may require a valid California driver's license.

Administrative Analyst II: ($24.51 - $31.46 Hourly) In addition to the above, two years of professional level experience in administrative, management, public information systems, operations, budgetary or similar analyses as a level equivalent to the County's class of Administrative Analyst I.
