DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
Management Analyst I: This is the entry level class in the Management Analyst series providing administrative and analytical support to assigned functions and operations within an assigned department or division. Positions at this level are not expected to function with the same amount of program knowledge or skill level as positions allocated to the Management Analyst II level and exercise less independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods. Work is usually supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or pattern. Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained in detail as they arise. Advancement to the "II" level is based on demonstrated proficiency in performing the assigned functions and is at the discretion of higher level supervisory or management staff.
Management Analyst II: This is the experienced level class in the Management Analyst series and is expected to independently perform the full range of analytical and administrative support functions in support of an assigned department or division with only occasional instruction or assistance. Positions at this level are distinguished from the Management Analyst I level by the performance of the full range of duties as assigned, working independently, applying well developed analytical knowledge, and exercising judgment and initiative. Positions at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise, and are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies of the work unit. Work is normally reviewed only on completion and for overall results. Positions in this class series are flexibly staffed and positions at the Management Analyst II level are normally filled by advancement from the Management Analyst I level.
