DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS:

Incumbents typically perform a range of routine to moderately complex professional financial analysis duties that require the application of standard financial theories, principles and techniques, and require the appropriate skill levels including basic to intermediate skill levels in computer, analytical and communication skills. This classification is distinguished from the Financial Analyst Senior classification in that incumbents usually consult with higher level Financial staff for advice and assistance and are not typically responsible for the more complex financial analysis functions. Duties require a moderate degree of initiative and independent judgment. This classification typically performs duties at a department or office level. This classification may require a flexible work schedule in order to meet the needs of the department.
