Employees in this classification per­form many of the same duties as a Department Specialist; however, the work performed requires considerable knowledge of a complete and specialized departmental function. Employees in this classification are responsible for completing tasks at all phases of a departmental function. Completing work assignments will frequently require the interpretation of governing regula­tions, policies and procedures. Senior Departmental Specialists are frequently called upon to explain complex departmental policies and procedures to both the public and other employees.

Employees in this classification may have full supervisory responsibility for one (1) or two (2) employees who are performing work of a similar nature. In these instances, the employee functions as a "working" supervisor. In other positions, incumbents may be responsible for assigning and reviewing work of other clerical support employees, as well as training of new employees.
