Position Summary:

We're seeking an analytical, public-service-minded professional to join our Government Operations and Efficiency team. This role combines municipal finance, public policy, and management consulting to help local governments improve financial sustainability, organizational effectiveness, and service delivery across New York State.

Working alongside experienced consultants, you'll support projects involving municipal reorganization, village dissolution, shared services, organizational assessments, strategic planning, and fiscal impact analysis, including the preparation of village dissolution studies, joint consolidation agreements, interim studies, and implementation strategies.

The ideal candidate has experience in municipal finance or local government and understands municipal budgeting, public finance, and New York State local government operations. Success in this role requires the ability to analyze financial and operational data, develop practical recommendations, and communicate complex information clearly to elected officials, municipal leaders, and community stakeholders.

Responsibilities

  • Analyze municipal budgets, audited financial statements, tax levies, fund balances, debt schedules, revenues, expenditures, and staffing costs.
  • Develop financial models that evaluate the fiscal impacts of municipal reorganizations, shared services, consolidations, organizational restructuring, and operational improvements.
  • Support consulting engagements involving village dissolution, town-village consolidation, service delivery optimization, organizational management studies, and strategic planning initiatives.
  • Assist in preparing village dissolution studies, joint consolidation agreements, interim studies, shared service studies, departmental organizational assessments, and implementation strategies.
  • Interpret and analyze municipal budgets, audited financial statements, payroll schedules, staffing plans, collective bargaining information, service contracts, fee schedules, and operational records.
  • Evaluate municipal operations, staffing structures, workflows, governance models, and service delivery practices to identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Evaluate municipal operations, identify practical recommendations, and translate technical analysis into plain-language public information.
  • Research New York State local government laws, municipal structures, shared service opportunities, and funding programs relevant to client projects.
  • Prepare technical reports, executive summaries, presentations, fiscal analyses, and public-facing materials that communicate complex information in a clear and understandable way.
  • Conduct interviews with elected officials, municipal administrators, department heads, employees, and community stakeholders to gather operational and financial information.
  • Participate in client meetings, public workshops, steering committee meetings, and board presentations.
  • Coordinate project documentation, data requests, meeting notes, and quality control throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Support proposal development, project scoping, and business development initiatives for municipal consulting opportunities.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Public Administration, Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business Administration, Public Policy, Planning, Political Science, or a related field.
  • Two or more years of professional experience in municipal finance, local government, public administration, budgeting, public policy, consulting, or a related field.
  • Excellent writing skills, including the ability to prepare polished reports, summaries, tables, and presentations for elected officials and the public.
  • Knowledge of municipal budgeting, public finance, fund accounting concepts, tax levies, fund balances, debt, revenues, expenditures, and fiscal forecasting.
  • Knowledge of New York State local government structures, including cities, towns, villages, counties, special districts, boards, departments, and intermunicipal service arrangements.
  • Ability to interpret and analyze municipal budgets, audited financial statements, payroll schedules, staffing plans, collective bargaining information, service contracts, fee schedules, and operational records.
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel with experience developing financial models and analyzing complex datasets.
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving abilities.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.
  • Comfortable working collaboratively with elected officials, municipal staff, consultants, and community stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master's degree in Public Administration (MPA), Public Policy, Finance, Economics, Planning, or a related field.
