Budget Analysts

Outlook

Job opportunities for budget analysts are projected to grow 3 percent from 2022 to 2032, according to the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). This is about as fast as the average for all occupations. Despite this prediction, there will continue to be good demand for budget analysts. The DOL says that “calls for efficient use of public funds will lead to continued demand for budget analysts to estimate program costs, develop budgets, and explain their findings to legislators and the public. Demand for these workers is somewhat tied to the government funding that is allocated for these positions. However, budget analysts manage resource allocation and will be needed even during times of tight budgets.”
