The PositionNapa County is currently recruiting to fill two Staff Services Analyst I/II vacancies within the Fiscal Division of the Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA). The Staff Services Analyst I/II series performs a full range of analytical and technical staff support services within a County department. The difference in levels depends on the amount and type of education and experience. The Staff Services Analyst I is the entry level of the series. Incumbents perform analysis tasks of increasing difficulty in one or more areas of administrative services and perform analytical duties of a more routine, repetitive nature. As experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities are acquired and utilized, the degree and complexity of assignments may correspondingly increase to the Staff Services Analyst II. However, positions limited to analytical duties of a more routine, repetitive nature will permanently remain at the Staff Services Analyst I level. The Staff Services Analyst II is the journey level of the series and works under general supervision. The Staff Services Analyst II position will be performing the more difficult, responsible, varied and complex analyst functions in a variety of assignments and/or program areas. Incumbents may be responsible for administratively overseeing programs, projects, assignments and/or highly specialized activities of lower level staff and may serve as a resource to other staff, departments, committees, boards or commissions.
Based on the qualifications of the applicant pool, the Fiscal Division in HHSA may choose to fill the position at either the Staff Services Analyst I or II level. Teleworking is not permitted during the first six (6) months of employment and/or during the first six (6) months of a probationary period. Should teleworking be permitted by a hiring department after the 6-month requirement, the County supports a telework schedule that consists of a maximum of two (2) days per week.
The list established by this recruitment may be used to fill current and future Full Time, Part Time, Limited Term, and Extra Help positions as they occur over the next 12 months.
