THE SELECTED CANDIDATE WILL BE OFFERED A SALARY BETWEEN $87,743.00 - $100,904.00

The Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) protects and promotes the safety and well-being of children and families through child welfare and juvenile justice services and community supports. ACS manages community-based supports and foster care services, and provides subsidized child care vouchers. ACS child protection staff respond to allegations of child maltreatment. In juvenile justice, ACS oversees detention, placement and programs for youth in the community.

The NYC Administration for Children’s Services is seeking an outstanding candidate to serve as an Analyst on the Research and Innovation Team in the Family Services Division (FSD).

The team also lends project management support to cross-divisional teams with expertise in a wide range of topic areas to design and implement projects. This includes a mix of service provider, legal, finance, procurement, compliance, policy/regulation (city, state, and federal), technology, and data analysis stakeholder groups and topic areas.

Under the supervision of the Executive Director of Research and Innovation, with latitude for independent decision-making, the primary responsibilities of the Analyst will include, but not be limited to:
- Conduct qualitative and quantitative research, including literature reviews, interviews, and data analysis, to support FSD’s policy and research efforts.
- Synthesize research findings and communicating evidence-based recommendations to FSD and cross-divisional leadership
- Draft memos, reports, briefings, presentations, and other documents for internal and external partners.
- Gather information from a variety of sources and partners (e.g. desk research/document/budget review, meetings with ACS staff, interviews/surveys with providers, families) to inform policy and/or program development
- Assist in the design/development of new initiatives related to the provision of prevention services
- Participate in and supporting FSD and cross-divisional convenings with various partners to collect feedback and advance projects
- Act as a strategic thought partner to the team to solve problems and address project needs as they arise.
