Oktibbeha County approves Bookkeeper job description and immediate recruitment schedule
Summary
The Board approved a full-time Bookkeeper (Assistant Comptroller) job description and authorized HR to post the vacancy internally for five business days followed by a one-week external posting; HR confirmed a current temporary accounts-payable support role is separate from the permanent vacancy.
The Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the classification and posting schedule for a full-time, non-exempt Bookkeeper (Assistant Comptroller) position in County Administration's Finance division.
Human Resources Director Jennifer Franklin presented the finalized job description and asked the board to authorize an immediate five-business-day internal posting to give current county employees first opportunity to apply, followed by a standard one-week external publication window. Franklin clarified that a temporary staffer currently supporting accounts payable is a short-term measure while a permanent employee is on leave and is not the same as the permanent bookkeeping vacancy.
The Board also discussed the statutory County Engineer office classification; Franklin noted that credential review for that statutory post would require an executive session and would be delayed until the board attorney can attend a regular meeting.
