The Housing Department is seeking qualified Analysts who will focus on effective grants management using several funding sources: the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) entitlement programs (CDBG, ESG, HOME, HOPWA); the State of California; and local funds. Many of the contracts relate to homeless response and/or a prioritization of formerly homeless residents for other programs such as tenant-based rental assistance. Some contracts also fund community development infrastructure programs such as the installation of community WiFi networks, City-installed physical infrastructure such as Green Alleyways, and minor repair programs for low-income single family homes.

 

This position is responsible for delivering high-quality services to implement the funding process, contracting with awarded agencies, and assisting the agencies to design their programs and successfully provide needed services in a way that meets compliance requirements for the various federal, state, and local funding sources that the team administers. Additionally, this position will facilitate procurements, conduct presentations to community-based organizations, and will work closely with the Homeless Response Team.

 

This position may administer both public service and community infrastructure agreements. Duties include: developing and negotiating contracts, monitoring grant compliance, training grantee staff on funding requirements, monitoring performance and program outcomes, ensuring timely and accurate payments to grantees, responding to HUD audit requests for information, and some presentations to internal and external stakeholders.

 

Grants analysts are required to develop and maintain excellent working relationships with external organizations and other City departments. They are also responsible for writing clear, accurate, and grammatically-correct reports, correspondence, and City Council memos.

 

Analysts’ work is inherently detail-oriented, so the ability to learn and follow extensive program rules is extremely important. Ideal candidates should be clear, accurate, and reliable oral communicators who are comfortable working independently but also collaboratively as part of a positive, high-energy team. Analysts’ work is also high volume, fast-paced, with shifting priorities so the ability to maintain focus, be adaptable, and flexible is highly desired. In addition, given the vitally important work that the Grants Management Team is doing to provide funding to organizations that serve vulnerable community members during the COVID-19 crisis, the ideal candidate for this position will be able to excel in a fast-paced environment with changing priorities, and will have personal values that align with the Department’s objectives of serving the community.

 

Key Responsibilities of the position will include the following:

- Implementing the funding process

- Facilitating procurements

- Evaluating funding applications

- Providing technical assistance to awarded agencies

- Contracting and negotiating with awarded agencies

- Monitoring compliance requirements at the federal, state, and municipal levels

- Reviewing invoices and processing reimbursement requests

- Tracking payments by funding source

 

- Training grantee staff and departmental staff

- Report writing, correspondence, Council memos

- Following construction-related procurement procedures

 

This position may prepare, attend, and lead presentations at evening community meetings.

 

The actual salary shall be determined by the final candidate’s qualifications and experience. In addition to the starting salary, employees in the Analyst I/II classification shall also receive an approximate five percent (5%) ongoing non-pensionable compensation pay. 

 

This recruitment may be used to fill multiple positions in this, or other divisions or departments. If you are interested in employment in this classification, you should apply to ensure you are considered for additional opportunities that may utilize the applicants from this recruitment.

The Town of Hillsborough is seeking a Management Analyst to work in the City Manager's Office.

DEFINITION

SUPERVISION RECEIVED AND EXERCISED

Receives general supervision from assigned supervisory or management personnel.  Exercises direct supervision over professional, technical, and administrative staff.

 

Class Characteristics

Management Analyst I: This is the entry-level classification in the Management Analyst series.  Initially under close supervision, incumbents learn and perform routine analytical work in support of a department or Town programs.  As experience is gained, assignments become more varied, complex, and difficult; close supervision and frequent review of work lessen as an incumbent demonstrates skill to perform the work independently.  Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the Management Analyst II level but are not expected to function at the same skill level and usually exercise less independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods.  Work is usually supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or pattern.  Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained in detail as they arise.

 

Management Analyst II:  This is the fully qualified journey-level classification in the Management Analyst series.  Positions at this level are distinguished from the Management Analyst I by the performance of the full range of duties as assigned, working independently, exercising judgment and initiative, and providing lead direction to assigned staff.  Positions at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise and are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies of the work unit.  This class is distinguished from the Senior Management Analyst in that the latter is a supervisory class and performs the more complex work assigned to the series, such as serving as a technical expert in multiple disciplinary and programmatic areas and/or managing complex, politically sensitive, and/or Town-wide projects,

Senior Management Analyst:  This is the full supervisory-level class in the Management Analyst series that exercises independent judgment on diverse and specialized management analysis and program/project management with accountability and ongoing decision-making responsibilities associated with the work.  Incumbents are responsible for planning, organizing, supervising, reviewing, and evaluating the work of staff and for providing analytical and programmatic support to management in a variety of areas.  Performance of the work requires the use of independence, initiative, and discretion within established guidelines.
