The Financial Analyst III plays a critical role in enabling North Carolina local governments to fund and deliver essential infrastructure projects that strengthen communities across the state. The Analyst coordinates, reviews, and approves the issuance of financing agreements, revenue bonds, Medical Care Commission bonds, industrial revenue bonds, North Carolina Capital Facilities Finance Agency bonds and housing bonds. This position guides local governments through the debt process, guides the debt issuance, and assists in preparing financing documents for these issuances.
