Distinguishing CharacteristicsThis is the advance level and supervisory classification in the Administrative Services Analyst series. Incumbents perform highly complex assignments and typically have broad responsibility for overseeing one or more administrative functions for an entire department. Incumbents typically oversee and administer segments of a department's operations, extensively develop and prepare a departmental budget, extensively oversee a large and complex program, independently administer a staff development and training program within a department, and/or perform other assignments that require an advanced level of knowledge and skill, as well as the use of highly independent judgment. Incumbents often work on specialized projects containing a high number of complex and difficult tasks and assignments. Due to the complex nature of the duties assigned to this class, positions at this level are typically found in large to medium size departments.
In addition to the preponderant advanced analytical role of positions in this class, an incumbent may be assigned to lead or supervise other professional, technical and clerical support staff as an ancillary responsibility of the position.
The duties of a Senior Administrative Services Analyst generally focus on one or more specialized functional area including general and administrative support, fiscal and contract management, program analysis and compliance, and/or staff development and training.
