The Centre County Board of Commissioners recently announced the appointment of Thomas Martin as the Centre County director of financial management, effective Monday, July 31.
Since 2004, Martin has worked in the Centre County Controller’s Office. He has been responsible for conducting audits of the various county departments as required by county code and has been instrumental in the development and implementation of an internal audit schedule to assist and examine departments not covered by the code.
He has assisted the county’s external, independent auditors in the preparation of the County’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, which has earned the Governmental Financial Officer’s Association Award for Outstanding Financial Reporting for more than a decade.
Prior to joining Centre County government, Martin served for several years as the fiscal officer for the Centre County Housing Authority and also worked for a local publicly traded company where he held several financial positions. He holds a bachelor’s degree in accounting and management from Lock Haven University.
“We are looking forward to working with Tom in his new role. His knowledge of Centre County government, along with his extensive experience in financial management, will be a valuable asset in providing leadership in this important area,” said board Chairman Michael Pipe in a press release.
