THE POSITION
The Department of the Auditor General (DAG) is seeking a highly organized and detailed-oriented individual to join the department's Bureau of Fire Relief Audits as an Assistant Director. This position is eligible for student loan forgiveness and provides excellent health, savings, and retirement benefits.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
As an Assistant Director of the Bureau of Fire Relief Audits (BFRA), you will assist the Director to oversee BFRA's operations and auditing processes. Employees in the BFRA ensure that Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Associations’ (VFRFAs) funds are spent according to state law. VFRAs are non-profit organizations established to afford financial protection to volunteer firefighters who suffer misfortune as a result of their efforts. VFRAs receive state aid from a two-percent state tax on fire insurance purchased by Pennsylvania residents from insurance companies outside the state. These funds are used to pay for insurance to protect firefighters, purchase fire equipment, and to cover volunteer training expenses. VFRAs are distinctly separate legal entities from fire companies. The Assistant Director will motivate and empower bureau-wide teamwork and act as a mentor for audit managers, supervisors, and staff for professional development.
