    Overview

    The Assessor's Office is hiring! We are looking for a limited-term Data Collector.

    The Data Collector position focuses on collecting site and improvement data, which appraisers analyze to determine property values. Data Collectors spend much of their time in the field measuring homes, collecting site-specific data, and communicating with property owners at their doorsteps. They then enter the data, including building footprint drawings, into the software used by the Assessor’s Office.

    It’s an ideal position for someone who enjoys a mix of fieldwork, technology, and meaningful community engagement.

    This is a limited-term position, meaning its duration depends on available funding or business needs. While limited-term employees are eligible for County benefits, the position does not guarantee long-term employment.

    The typical schedule for this position is Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM - 4:30 PM.

    Responsibilities

    What you'll be doing:
    • Collecting data through visual inspections, including sketching building exteriors, measuring properties, and photographing sites.
    • Entering data related to property additions, completions, zoning changes, and site use updates.
    • Researching and identifying blueprints, maps, plans, surveys, and other resources to assist appraisal staff.
    • Conducting field inspections of single-family residential properties and ancillary structures in response to appeals or special requests.
    • Adhering to the County’s vehicle usage policy; County vehicles used by the Assessor’s Office are equipped with GPS to enhance safety and data collection.
    • Recording and maintaining detailed property attribute information, including creating building footprints.

    What we're looking for:
    • Someone who enjoys working outdoors in all types of weather.
    • A self-motivated individual with a strong eye for detail.
    • Excellent communication skills for interacting with property owners, co-workers, and supervisors.
    • The ability to work independently after the initial training period.
    • A commitment to providing excellent customer service to clients and the public.
    • Strong writing skills, including accurate use of English, spelling, punctuation, and grammar for report writing.


    Qualifications

    To move forward in the hiring process, candidates must meet the required minimum qualifications. That said, we encourage you to think about your unique background and skills before applying. People often underestimate how their experiences match up with a role’s needs. We encourage you to apply if you meet the minimum qualifications and believe your skills and perspective can add value to this position.
    • Must be at least 18 years of age.
    • Additional coursework related to single-family residential real property preferred.
    • Possession of a valid Driver's License by date of hire required.
