POSITION DUTIES

Performance management helps government entities use technology and data to openly set goals, hold participants accountable, connect to stakeholders, track progress, and achieve results. By collecting and analyzing data and evidence, determining the desired outputs and outcomes, and linking data to overarching priorities, government leaders can use performance management to best administer policies and programs to the benefit of their community and residents. The analyst plays a crucial role in the success of the program. 

An open data program makes data easily accessible to anyone, at any time, through the internet. Businesses, residents, and civil servants expect to have readily available data to aid decision making. Good open data programs meet these expectations while also delivering increased transparency and strong accountability. The Comptroller of Maryland is Maryland’s tax administration agency. The Analyst will support the CompStat Director by performing a wide variety of leadership, analytical, programming, assessment, and administrative duties in support of the development and launching of the organization’s STAT, OpenData, and legislative data reporting programs. STAT and OpenData processes have helped governments in Maryland and across the globe better serve their citizens. The incumbent will additionally have a role in working with partner offices within the Office of the Comptroller of Maryland to project manage solutions identified at CompStat meetings.

The selected candidate will adhere to the Agency data security policies and understand the data security and privacy implications of maintaining the system of voluntary tax compliance and proactively propose solutions that maintain the security and functionality of systems that maintain private tax information while bringing aggregated data sets that benefit the organization, public agencies, and the public to life.
