Kansas State Jobs – Budget Analyst

The Division of the Budget is seeking a Budget Analyst responsible for reviewing State of Kansas agency funding authorized by legislation that governs agency missions, programs, and regulatory functions.

The Division of the Budget has central responsibility for the state budget process and management of state government.  Within broad guidelines set by law, the Division issues instructions, regulations and directives that determine how state agencies propose and justify requests for expenditure authority.  Findings and conclusions arising from that analysis are submitted to the Governor and become the basis for the Governor’s recommendations to the Legislature.

Because of its central role in budget formulation, the Division serves as a source of explanation to the Legislature and to legislative staff and committees while the Governor’s proposals are being considered for adoption.  The Budget Analyst is also tasked with preparing appropriation bills for introduction that reflect the Governor’s budget recommendations to the Legislature; monitor legislative action and prepare fiscal notes on pending legislation.  It also provides extensive staff support to the Governor on budget and related policy issues often under short time constraints.

Applicant must have a master’s degree and skills in budget, program, and quantitative analysis as well as excellent written and oral communications.  Candidates should also have imagination and a commitment to high level performance.
