Job Description

The Budget and Management Services Department is seeking a highly skilled Supervisor - Information Technology. This role is a mix of people leadership and hands-on strategy: you'll shape projects, manage resources, and make sure our systems and tools support the needs of our growing community and organization. You will have an understanding of governmental business practices and have the ability to utilize technology to lead decision making. You will oversee the team that manages our Budget Planning Software (Oracle PBCS), departmental data visualization program (PowerBI), budget document creation tool (Gravity), and PeopleSoft Financials. If you like to find creative ways to use technology to support the decision-making process in an organization, then this is the job for you!

About You:

The ideal candidate is a collaborative leader who enjoys guiding and mentoring a team while working hands-on with technology.

You thrive in an environment where problem-solving, clear communication, change management, and customer service matter just as much as technical know-how. You also enjoy solving problems and have the technical expertise to build an Excel model while coaching a co-worker through a technical solution. If you are motivated by the chance to shape technology that directly supports a growing city and want to work in a supportive, forward-thinking organization, this role is a good fit for you.
