Position Description
Join us in shaping Seattle’s streets!
At the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT), we don’t just move people—we connect communities, build safer streets, and create a more sustainable city.
With a bold vision for the future, we’re tackling big challenges: making travel safer, cutting carbon emissions, and ensuring reliable, affordable transportation for everyone—no matter who they are or where they live.
Seattle is growing fast, and we’re growing with it. Thanks to a historic voter-approved $1.55 billion investment in transportation in 2024, we’re building sidewalks, fixing bridges, and improving transit connections to keep our city moving.
We’re a team of problem solvers, planners, engineers, communicators, and field crews—bringing purpose-driven work to life. Now, we need passionate, innovative talent like you. Let’s build a Seattle that works for everyone—together!
Behind every project that keeps Seattle moving is a team guiding the funding that makes it possible—and that’s where you come in. We’re hiring a Finance Analyst Supervisor to lead our Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget team. This is a great opportunity to grow as a leader while supporting the financial planning behind major public investments. In this role, you’ll guide a team of Senior Finance Analysts, help shape sound budget plans, spot risks early and support program teams in making confident financial decisions.
If you’re ready to build your leadership skills, manage staff and work collaboratively across the department, we’d love to see you apply.
Job Responsibilities
- Lead budget development and monitoring for the department's six-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP), tracking how public dollars are planned, allocated and spent across major transportation projects.
- Partner with the CIP Finance Manager, SDOT Finance Manager and Chief Finance Officer to drive the strategic direction of the SDOT CIP budget.
- Develop and recommend budget policies, procedures and funding strategies that keep the CIP on track.
- Assign, review and support the day-to-day budget work of the Senior Finance Analyst team.
- Support Senior Finance Analysts as they provide budget analysis, funding guidance and capital program reporting for the project teams they serve.
- Identify budget overruns, funding shortfalls and financial risks early, advise management on solutions and lead efforts to resolve problems before they affect project delivery.
- Serve as a budget resource for management, helping teams prepare CIP budgets, interpret funding guidelines and respond to budget questions from across the department.
- Maintain the CIP Finance Analyst Desk Manual and provide ongoing budget training and guidance to the Senior Finance Analyst team.
- Support department goals in promoting diversity and social justice in keeping with the City's Race and Social Justice Initiative.

Education:
- Bachelor’s degree in business administration, public administration, finance, accounting or a related field.

Supervision:
- One (1) year of experience in a supervisory or lead capacity.
OR: An equivalent combination of education and experience that demonstrates the ability to perform the position duties.
You'll do well in this role if you can:
- Translate complex capital budgets and funding plans into clear guidance that analysts, managers and project teams can act on with confidence.
- Build, monitor and adjust multi-year budgets for large programs while keeping a close eye on accuracy and deadlines.
- Guide, coach and support a team of analysts in budget development and capital program financial planning, helping each person do their best work.

Tips for Your Finance Supervisor Job Search
Quantify your team and budget oversight
Finance supervisor resumes that land interviews show the size of the team you managed and the dollar volume you oversaw. Hiring managers want to see scope, not just duties, so lead each bullet with a measurable result or responsibility.
Highlight your month-end close experience
Most finance supervisor postings list month-end and quarter-end close as a core requirement. Call out the exact close cycle you owned, the systems you used, and whether you reduced close time, so your resume maps directly to what the job asks for.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists finance supervisor openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target postings by accounting system
Many finance supervisor roles require hands-on experience with a specific ERP or accounting platform. When searching, filter or scan postings for the system you know best so your application speaks to a requirement the team already has.
Prepare a variance analysis walkthrough
Interviewers for finance supervisor roles frequently ask you to walk through how you investigate a budget variance. Practice a concise example from your own work that covers how you identified the gap, what you found, and how you resolved it.
Negotiate using total compensation, not base pay alone
Finance supervisors often receive performance bonuses tied to close accuracy or cost savings. When evaluating or negotiating an offer, ask specifically about bonus structure and review cycles so you understand the full earning picture before you accept.
Finance Supervisor Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most finance supervisors?
The companies hiring the most finance supervisors right now include Catalis, AHOLD Delhaize, and Catalis Regulatory & Compliance, with the largest share of openings in Florida, California, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Healthcare systems, large manufacturers, and regional government agencies tend to post consistently throughout the year.
How many finance supervisor jobs are remote?
About 71% of finance supervisor openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with fully on-site roles still common in manufacturing and government. Financial reporting, accounts payable oversight, and FP&A-adjacent supervisor roles are the sub-areas most likely to offer remote or hybrid arrangements.
How do you become a finance supervisor?
Start by completing a bachelor's degree in accounting or finance, then build several years of hands-on experience in roles like staff accountant, senior accountant, or financial analyst. Develop fluency in at least one major ERP system, take ownership of close cycles or reconciliations, and pursue your CPA to strengthen your candidacy for supervisory titles.
Can you get a finance supervisor job with little experience?
It is possible to move into a finance supervisor role without years of direct management experience if your accounting or financial analysis background is strong. Employers in smaller organizations or high-growth companies sometimes promote from within, so demonstrating ownership of a full close cycle, mentoring junior staff informally, and showing process improvement results can offset a thinner management history.
What does the finance supervisor interview process look like?
The process typically starts with a phone screen covering your accounting background and systems experience, followed by one or two rounds of interviews with the finance manager and HR. Expect technical questions on close processes, variance analysis, and internal controls, plus behavioral questions about managing deadlines and coaching staff. Some employers add a short written exercise or case review.
Where can I find and apply to finance supervisor jobs?
You can find and apply to finance supervisor jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search the roles available, find the ones that match your background and preferences, and apply directly to each listing that fits.
