About the Role
As a Program Manager, you will serve as a principal advisor and leader within a local department or agency. Operating under the direction of senior leadership, your mission is to plan, organize, and direct units or programs that drive the agency's core objectives. Whether overseeing administrative services or specialized fields such as public health or cannabis regulation, you will ensure that operations align with the agency's mission while maintaining high standards of quality and timeliness.
This role is designed for a strategic thinker who can bridge the gap between policy and execution. You will manage daily work activities, either directly or through subordinate supervisors, by setting clear performance goals and monitoring progress. Your day-to-day involves assessing service delivery, identifying areas for efficiency improvements, and implementing changes that maximize program effectiveness.

You will play a critical role in shaping the department's future by interpreting laws and regulations, developing policies to improve operational efficiency, and assisting in strategic planning. Additionally, you will oversee personnel actions, ensuring compliance with policies while fostering a culture of development through training, performance management, and staff selection. The role also requires fiscal responsibility, including assisting in budget development, preparing cost estimates, and monitoring expenditures to ensure compliance.
