Management Analyst I​/II - Human Resources

The City of Citrus Heights is seeking a Management Analyst I/II (Human Resources) to join our team and take a meaningful role in supporting our employees and organization.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys the people side of HR as much as the technical side. The position has a diverse portfolio of responsibilities, with a primary focus on workers’ compensation, leave administration, safety, and employee wellness. You’ll work closely with employees, supervisors, managers, medical providers, and HR colleagues to navigate complex situations, provide thoughtful guidance, and help ensure our workplace is safe, supportive, and compliant.

In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Manage workers’ compensation programs and claims, working with employees, departments, claims administrators, and medical providers to facilitate effective and timely claim resolution and return-to-work efforts.
• Administer employee leaves, including FMLA, CFRA, PDL, and other protected and non-protected leaves, while helping employees and supervisors understand their rights and responsibilities.
• Support workplace safety and risk management, including safety programs, training, ergonomic evaluations, safety committee, OSHA recordkeeping, and related compliance activities.
• Develop and support employee wellness initiatives that promote a healthy, safe, and engaged workforce.
• Serve as a trusted HR resource to employees, supervisors, and managers by researching issues, interpreting policies and regulations, and providing practical solutions.
• Identify opportunities to improve HR processes, strengthen compliance, and make it easier for employees and managers to navigate HR programs.

We believe great HR is about more than policies and paperwork. It’s about people.

Our HR team is comprised of two Human Resources Technicians, one Senior Payroll Technician, one Management Analyst I/II, one Senior Management Analyst, and the Human Resources Manager. We strive to be a trusted partner to our organization by providing thoughtful advice, excellent customer service, and practical solutions.

We value collaboration, accountability, responsiveness, transparency, consistency, flexibility, continuous improvement, and treating people with respect. We work hard, support one another, and believe that HR should be approachable and willing to roll up its sleeves to solve problems.

You’ll join a team that is involved in a broad range of HR functions and is constantly looking for ways to improve how we serve our employees and organization.

This position may be a great fit if you:

• Enjoy working on complex issues and finding practical solutions.
• Can balance compassion with sound judgment.
• Like variety and want exposure to multiple areas of HR.
• Are comfortable researching regulations, policies, and other resources to find the right answer.
• Have strong organizational skills and can manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Enjoy partnering with employees, supervisors, and managers at all levels.
• Take pride in providing responsive, accurate, and professional HR service.
• Are curious, collaborative, and always looking for ways to improve.
