RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Civil Service Commission approve the new recruitment bulletin for Transit Operations Manager.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
In August 2001, the Civil Service Commission approved the classification specification for Transit Operations Manager due to the reclassification of the Senior Management Analyst position. This position is assigned to the Transportation Department and is categorized as a classified position in accordance with the City’s Civil Service Rules.
The Transit Operations Manager is responsible for the daily transit operations for the City’s Transportation Department which provides daily transit service for the City of Culver City and surrounding communities.
The Transportation Department provides public transit service on seven (7) regular routes and a bus rapid transit (BRT) route throughout Culver City and West Los Angeles. The Department is responsible for the planning, delivery, and monitoring of mobility services with Culver CityBus fixed route(s) being the foundation of the Department’s services. The Department consists of three divisions: Transit Operations, City Fleet Services, and Transportation Administration Services. The Transit Operations Manager supports the Transit Operations Division that is responsible for providing fixed-route, on-demand, and micro-mobility public services and community engagement with stakeholders.
We are submitting the new recruitment bulletin for approval due to the significance of the classification and in anticipation of opening a recruitment as the result of a retirement.
Recruitment Bulletin
The bulletin, Attachment One (1), is reflective of the classification specification, Attachment Two (2), and includes the necessary recruitment information as well as the examination components. The exam component includes an oral interview weighted at 100% and is aligned with similar manager classifications within the City.
Bargaining Unit Representation
This classification is represented by the Culver City Management Group (CCMG). A copy of the proposed recruitment bulletin has been provided to CCMG for their information.
AUTHORITY
The Commission’s authority to approve new or revised recruitment bulletins is outlined in Civil Service Rule 6.4:
6.4 Commission Approval: Where an examination is required, the Human Resources Director shall prepare a Job Bulletin and forward it to the Commission for approval. It shall not be necessary to obtain additional Commission approval of a Job Bulletin if there have been no changes in the minimum requirements or examination components.
