The City of Gilroy is an equal opportunity employer and supports workforce diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging. Join our team! 

ABOUT THE POSITION
The City of Gilroy is currently recruiting for a Management Analyst/Management Analyst Trainee position (depending on level of education/experience) for the Utilities department. In this exciting role, you will provide analytical, administrative and project-support services to ensure efficient and effective operations of our water and wastewater utility systems.  If you enjoy problem solving, streamlining processes, contracts, and budget work and want to make a real impact in your community, apply today and grow with us! 

The eligibility list from this recruitment may be used to fill future Management Analyst/Management Analyst Trainee vacancies throughout the City during the life of the list. 

The Management Analyst Series includes both Trainee and Journey-Level positions, providing a career progression path for individuals performing professional-level analytical work. Both classifications involve significant analytical ability and require incumbents to work independently or as part of a team on a variety of budget, project, program management, administrative, and research tasks. Incumbents may rotate among different departments as needed and may be assigned to supervise full-time and part-time employees as well as volunteers. If assigned duties in support of labor negotiations and/or labor relations, the position may be designated as confidential.

The Trainee position is designed for individuals gaining professional-level experience while actively working toward obtaining a bachelor’s degree or may be a professional with a bachelor’s degree in a related field of study working to gain relevant, hands-on experience. The Journey-Level position requires both a degree and experience along with a higher degree of expertise, experience, independent judgment, and application of policies and procedures.

MANAGEMENT ANALYST – TRAINEE
This is a trainee-level, exempt position with a steep learning curve, designed to provide entry-level professional experience over a twelve to twenty-four-month period. The incumbent applies education and related work experience while actively pursuing a bachelor's degree. In the alternative, a Trainee may hold a bachelor's degree, but does not have the experience for a journey-level role just yet. Under general and/or close supervision of an executive or department manager, the incumbent will train on and perform a variety of analytical tasks, including budget preparation, program management, and policy evaluation. As experience and education progress, the incumbent may begin to take on more complex assignments. 

While in the Trainee capacity, the incumbent is an at-will, probationary employee. Upon successfully gaining the required experience or bachelor’s degree, the incumbent will be evaluated for potential placement in the Journey-Level Management Analyst classification.

MANAGEMENT ANALYST – JOURNEY LEVEL
This is a journey-level, exempt position in which the incumbent operates with greater independence and responsibility. The position requires both breadth and depth of knowledge in theories, concepts, and techniques used in budget, project, and policy analysis, along with a thorough understanding of policies and procedures. Under general supervision, the incumbent will perform complex analytical work, evaluate management projects, and may develop policy recommendations.

Unlike the Trainee, the Journey-Level Analyst is expected to work with greater autonomy, requiring less oversight in conducting research, preparing reports, and making recommendations on administrative and operational matters. The incumbent may also be assigned to supervise employees and volunteers.
