SUMMARY:

The Mayor’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is the City government's chief financial agency. OMB's staff of analysts and experts assembles and oversees the Mayor’s expense and capital budgets, which fund the services and activities of approximately 90 City agencies and entities.

The Miscellaneous Revenue Unit forecasts and monitors all sources of revenue received by more than 60 City agencies with the exception of taxes and grants.

There are three major groupings of Miscellaneous Revenue: Cost-based Charges (Licenses, Permits, and Charges for Services); Water and Sewer revenues; and Other Income (Interest Income, Franchises, Rental Income, Fines, and Miscellaneous). The Unit also initiates and manages many projects designed to increase revenue and improve revenue-related operations.

JOB DESCRIPTION:

Data Visualization: The primary focus of the intern will be supporting analysts with data visualization and summary. Working closely with the analysts, the intern will apply technical and analytical skills to help develop automated, practical visualizations that summarize large incoming datasets to support ongoing analysis.

Fee Database Development: Most fees charged by the City are backed by a user fee analysis approved by OMB. The intern will be responsible for upkeeping the centralized database which involves understanding key details such as legislative authority, implementation dates, and the agencies responsible for administering each fee.

Report Management & Revenue Monitoring: In addition to the above projects, the intern will gain hands-on experience with core analyst responsibilities. This will include updating regular reports, tracking revenue streams, and assisting with data analysis to support decision-making.

QUALIFICATIONS:

The ideal candidate should have:
- Experience and familiarity with exploratory analytic and visualization tools for large datasets.
- Proficiency in Excel or other data management tools is required for organizing and analyzing data efficiently; PowerBI experience is a plus.
- Strong research and analytical skills to gather and synthesize information from various sources, including legislative documents and agency reports.
- Attention to detail is essential to ensure accuracy in compiling fee data and monitoring revenue streams.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills are also important for documenting findings clearly and effectively.
- Additionally, the intern should be proactive, organized, and able to manage multiple tasks independently while seeking guidance when necessary. Prior experience with government finance, policy research, or data analysis is a plus but not required.
