[SchoolFinance] Job Description for our Audit Reviewer Position

[Gravelle, Paula B]

Hello All,

As you may have heard, Alyssa Kenney has left the team for another opportunity.  Therefore, we are looking for someone for a temporary full-time position hired through Tri-State Staffing for now, until the position is approved and is able to be filled as a permanent State position.

Below is the information from Tri-State Staffing for the position.  The salary is higher since it is a contractor and does not have any benefits, however, when the position is able to be filled permanently it will then reflect the inclusion of State benefits.  The ideal candidate would be able to work temporarily as a contractor, and then hopefully apply for the permanent position when it is available.

Please let me know if you know anyone or pass along the posting from Tri-State that may be interested – thank you 😊.
