Financial Impact:
The annual base salary for a full-time Accounting Technician I at Step B is $43,680, a $2,080 increase over that of Step A. The Department has sufficient 24/25 fiscal year funding budgeted for appointment at Step B. There will be no impact to the general fund.
Background Information:
The candidate’s two years’ experience as a cost accounting specialist, experience with financial reporting, financial data analysis, cost control measures with the ability to implement new processes related to these control measures, in addition to her experience with budgets, fuel reporting and accounts payable makes her the ideal candidate for this position. The candidate’s training and experience with complex processes exceeds that of an entry level employee, even for Accounting Technician I. Public Works would like to appoint a highly qualified candidate such as this.
