Management Analyst 3

This position is located approximately 30 minutes from downtown North Bend, WA at the beautiful campus of the Washington State Fire Training Academy. 

The incumbent will also receive an additional 5% King County pay on each pay statement.

About the Position:

The Management Analyst 3 provides operational analysis, develops recommendations, and leads implementation of approved projects; it does not perform specialized engineering, legal, or software development work. This position is instrumental in assessing and optimizing technological platforms, managing facilities-related data and procurement processes, supporting environmental compliance, and driving technology-based change management initiatives. This position independently plans and executes assigned projects, makes operational decisions within established policies and delegated thresholds, and signs off on routine administrative actions such as validating PM closeouts and approving minor system configuration changes allowed by vendor/IT policy. The position recommends purchases, resource allocations, and strategic changes but cannot approve major procurements, enter legally binding contracts, or make personnel actions such as hiring or termination; those actions require supervisor or appointing authority approval.
