The work you'll do is more than just a job.

At the State of Minnesota, employees play a critical role in developing policies, providing essential services, and working to improve the well-being and quality of life for all Minnesotans. The State of Minnesota is committed to equity and inclusion, and invests in employees by providing benefits, support resources, and training and development opportunities.

This job posting was previously announced from 08/26/25 - 09/08/25. If you have already applied, there is no need to reapply.

The Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) administers and promotes sustainable retirement plans and provides services that our members value.

PERA is the largest public pension plan in the State of Minnesota, serving current and former public employees from 2,100 governmental agencies. We pay monthly benefits to over 140,000 retirees, members who are disabled, and survivors of deceased members. Our 200,000 active members work in our parks, cities, counties, and schools across the state. The services they provide and the work they do make our communities better.

PERA offers parking in an attached ramp at no cost to employees. While PERA receives some State aid, expenses such as benefits, payroll, and other administrative costs are funded by investment earnings and employer and employee contributions.

The incumbent also analyzes operations of the Statewide Volunteer Firefighter (SVF) retirement plan to recommend and implement changes in reports, systems, and work flow.

This position is telework (https://mn.gov/mmb-stat/policies/1422-telework.pdf) eligible and offers a hybrid work schedule which may include telework up to 50% of the scheduled workdays each month, based on agency and department needs and other dependencies. Scheduled in-office work days are at PERA’s office building in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Candidates located outside the state of Minnesota and more than 50 miles from PERA’s St. Paul office are not eligible to telework and would be required to report to the office full-time.
