Summary Statement
The Public Works Department is seeking a highly skilled and collaborative Data Analytics Manager to lead and support data-driven decision-making across the department. This is a hands-on working manager role that combines advanced analytics expertise with team supervision and collaboration, operational partnership, and technology support.
The ideal candidate brings strong experience in data analytics while also guiding and supporting a multidisciplinary team.
