Description

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
Under the direction of the assigned supervisor, perform highly complex and specialized administrative analysis, policy development, and regulatory compliance work for the Office of the Superintendent/President and the Governing Board; serve as the district's technical expert on Governing Board meeting compliance, board policy and procedure administration, and board reporting and records management; conduct independent research and prepare analytical reports and recommendations in support of governance operations; and fulfill public transparency obligations including California Public Records Act (CPRA) response.

DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
This is a journey-level professional classification in the Superintendent/President's Office. Unlike general administrative support classifications, positions in this class perform specialized professional work focused on governance analysis, Board operations, policy and procedure development, regulatory compliance, and public meeting requirements. Incumbents exercise substantial independence and professional judgment in researching and analyzing complex governance matters, developing policy recommendations, coordinating Board meeting processes, ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, maintain official Board records, and facilitating Districtwide governance workflows. Assignments require interpretation and application of laws, regulations, policies, and governance best practices, as well as the ability to make sound recommendations based on research, analysis, and District needs.

This is a confidential classification. Incumbents perform duties that involve handling decisional Governing Board closed-session documentation and materials related to litigation and labor negotiations, managing official records subject to public disclosure obligations, and working with information related to pending legal matters.
Qualifications
EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE

• If specifically referenced (i.e. degree 'or equivalent'), related experience that is above the minimum requirement may be substituted for education on a year for year basis.
• Additional assessment is required for applicants with foreign degrees from colleges or universities outside of the United States.
