Position Description
Join us in shaping Seattle's streets!
At the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT), we don't just move people-we connect communities, build safer streets, and create a more sustainable city.
With a bold vision for the future, we're tackling big challenges: making travel safer, cutting carbon emissions, and ensuring reliable, affordable transportation for everyone-no matter who they are or where they live.
Seattle is growing fast, and we're growing with it. Thanks to a historic voter-approved $1.55 billion investment in transportation in 2024, we're building sidewalks, fixing bridges, and improving transit connections to keep our city moving.
We're a team of problem solvers, planners, engineers, communicators, and field crews-bringing purpose-driven work to life. Now, we need passionate, innovative talent like you. Let's build a Seattle that works for everyone-together!
Behind every project that keeps Seattle moving is a team guiding the funding that makes it possible-and that's where you come in. We're hiring a Finance Analyst Supervisor to lead our Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget team. This is a great opportunity to grow as a leader while supporting the financial planning behind major public investments. In this role, you'll guide a team of Senior Finance Analysts, help shape sound budget plans, spot risks early and support program teams in making confident financial decisions.
If you're ready to build your leadership skills, manage staff and work collaboratively across the department, we'd love to see you apply.
