Steuben County, New York is currently recruiting candidates for the provisional position of:
SENIOR PLANNER
This position is located at the Steuben County Department of Planning. The work involves responsibility for the performance of moderately difficult, complex, technical duties in the field of municipal, regional or community planning at either the County Planning Department or the Regional Planning and Development Board.
The work is carried out in accordance with well- established and accepted modern professional planning techniques and procedures and involves the provision of professional planning support in all program areas of the department/agency; assumption of major project planner status for selected programs and tasks in line with the incumbent’s areas of special expertise/interests; coordination of activities with related work being done by other agencies in the area; and the compilation of a wide variety of statistics and data related to the work being done as well as the preparation of reports.
This class differs from that of Planner by virtue of the increased level of responsibility and independence of action exercised. Work is performed under the general supervision of the Planning Director, with wide leeway allowed the incumbent for the exercise of independent judgment in the carrying out of the details of projects undertaken. Direct supervision of the work of subordinates may be exercised if they are employed at the worksite or are assigned to assist with specific tasks/projects. In a smaller planning unit the incumbent would be assigned projects calling for individual leadership to a greater extent than would be the case in larger planning units. Does related work as required.
