Budget Analyst

All qualifications must be met by the closing date of this announcement-11/27/2024-unless otherwise stated in this vacancy announcement. Credit will be given for all appropriate qualifying experience. For current Federal employees, if hours worked per week are not included on your resume, you must submit a non-award SF-50 for each federal position listed as part of your application to be used to validate your work schedule and determine the amount of qualifying experience that you will be granted. An award SF-50 will not be acceptable documentation for which to consider your amount of qualifying experience. For all other applicants who are not current federal employees, your resume must state either “full-time” (or “40 hours a week”) or “part-time” with the number of hours worked per week to ensure proper crediting of specialized experience. Failure to adequately provide information needed to determine number of hours worked in each position may result in that time not being credited when evaluating qualifying experience. For periods of time that reflect military service, the DD-214 or Statement of Service is sufficient to meet the full and/or part-time hours requirement as the service dates will be reflected. To qualify for this position at the GS-12 grade level, you must possess the following minimum qualifications by close of the announcement: EXPERIENCE: At least one full year of specialized experience comparable in scope and responsibility to the GS-11 grade level in the Federal service (obtained in either the public or private sectors).

Interpret data in financial systems to identify status of transactions, identify problems, and develop resolutions. Use financial systems to determine balances of funds and accounts.

Utilize knowledge of organizational structure, programs and work methods to determine whether estimates of funding needs and requests for allotments are in line with program plans. Provide guidance for content and format for submission of estimates and requests for funding needs. Develop methods and techniques of budgeting for multiyear funds to ensure planning and continuance of major projects. Provide analyses and guidance on status of funds and projected fund balances. Determine appropriateness of obligations against a fund. You must include hours per week worked. Volunteer Experience: Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social).
