Montgomery Personnel Board

Senior Personnel Analyst (#PB0188)

Pay Grade

A12

Nature of Work

The fundamental reason that this classification exists is to develop multiple-tiered assessments and multiple choice tests and to assist the department head in the supervision and management of the Personnel Board.  The major work responsibilities for the position include providing administrative and management support to the Personnel Director; supervising employees; planning and managing complex job analysis, classification and testing projects; conducting job analysis; designing selection procedures; and administering and scoring assessment centers or other tests. The incumbents are responsible for a wide variety of functions requiring knowledge of policies and their application to unusual situations.  The incumbents make decisions to develop procedures to solve problems, use independent judgment, and exercise discretion in interpreting policies.  The senior analyst differs from the personnel analyst in that the senior analyst supervises, develops multi-tiered assessments, and provides management support to the Personnel Director.  The classification is directly supervised by the Personnel Director.

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university in industrial psychology, human resources or closely related field with course work in tests and measurement, statistics and research methodology and five years of experience in content validation of employment selection procedures including work sample tests and assessment centers.

NOTE:  Qualifying education, training and experience that provide the requisite knowledge, skills and abilities to perform the job will be considered.
