Keeping Washington Clean and Evergreen
The Department of Ecology is hiring a Cashiering Support (Fiscal Analyst 3) within the Financial Services Division.
Location:
Headquarters Office in Lacey, WA .
Upon hire, you must live within a commutable distance from the duty station.

Duties
In this role, you will manage highly detailed, high-stakes financial data while ensuring strict compliance with multiple regulatory frameworks, including state, federal, and Ecology’s internal policies.

Financial Reporting & Ledger Analysis: Develop and distribute accounting reports to management, staff, and EPA; perform fiscal assessment/analysis of general ledgers used by the Revenue & Receivables Unit.
Suspense & Fund Reconciliation: Assist with reconciling the Ecology Suspense account and reconciling funds tied to agency fees to ensure proper allocation and clearing.
Customer Service, Policy/Procedure Development, and Continuous Improvement: Respond to staff inquiries on fiscal data; draft/improve fiscal procedures and forms; apply Lean or other methodologies to streamline processes.

The Northwest Straits Commission is a governmental organization within the Department of Ecology’s SEA Program, created to protect and restore the unique marine ecosystem of the Northwest Straits region of Puget Sound through a locally based approach. The Commission provides resources, coordination, and technical assistance to seven county-based Marine Resources Committees (MRCs) and leads marine conservation projects throughout the region.
This Program Coordinator position offers a unique opportunity to support this collaborative, community-driven conservation effort by ensuring strong coordination, communication, and engagement across the MRCs and a broad network of regional partners. In this role, you will help advance the Commission’s mission by planning and coordinating meetings and events, maintaining communication tools and documents, and providing essential logistical and administrative support to staff, partners, and volunteers.
