About the Office

The Office of the New York City Comptroller serves as the City’s chief fiscal steward, responsible for auditing City agencies, managing pension funds, overseeing contracts, and advancing policy solutions that promote equity, transparency, and effective government. Under Comptroller Mark Levine’s leadership, the Office is focused on strengthening public systems, improving affordability, and delivering effective and equitable outcomes for all New Yorkers.

The Senior Data Analyst will support the Policy Bureau’s data-driven research and oversight work by applying rigorous quantitative analysis to advance the Comptroller’s policy priorities.

This role is well suited for an analytically strong, policy-oriented professional who is comfortable working across complex datasets, producing clear visualizations, and translating technical analysis into actionable insights.
