BWSR seeks senior financial analyst, hybrid role based in Bemidji
BWSR's senior financial analyst opening puts a state finance job in Bemidji, with pay listed at $32.97 to $48.60 an hour and applications due July 24.
The Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources is recruiting a senior financial analyst that can be based in Bemidji, putting another state payroll job within reach of Beltrami County. The hybrid opening lists pay at $32.97 to $48.60 an hour, and applications will close July 24.
For Bemidji, the listing says as much about the city’s role in state government as it does about one vacancy. BWSR is Minnesota’s state soil and water conservation agency, and it says its work with partners includes preventing sediment and nutrients from entering lakes, rivers and streams, enhancing fish and wildlife habitat, improving soil health and protecting wetlands. A senior finance post tied to that operation means some of the state’s spending oversight and internal decision-making is not confined to St. Paul.
Agency documents for the same role identify the working title as Senior Financial Analyst, the job class as Accounting Officer Principal, job ID 78508 and hybrid eligibility as yes. An earlier posting for the position listed St. Paul as the location, while the newer recruiting notice says the job is hybrid-eligible and can be based in Bemidji, a sign that BWSR is using flexible work to widen where state jobs can land in Greater Minnesota.
The Bemidji listing is not the only example. BWSR has also advertised a part-time, hybrid-eligible contracts specialist that could be based in St. Paul, Bemidji, Brainerd, Detroit Lakes, Duluth, Mankato or Marshall. That spread shows an agency willing to recruit beyond its Twin Cities base, while still keeping core financial and contracting work inside state government.
BWSR’s careers page says the Board of Water and Soil Resources has 20 members drawn from local and state government agencies and citizens, and the agency identifies itself as an equal opportunity employer. For a city like Bemidji, where state and regional offices already shape a sizable share of public employment, a senior analyst opening adds another piece to the local government-job footprint.
