G SA’s chief financial officer Mike Casella is shifting jobs. An email Casella sent to CFO colleagues and obtained by Federal News Radio on Sept. 5 says he will move over to support GSA’s contributions to the President’s Management Agenda.

Casella said in the email that his new role includes “leading the agency’s effort to help the entire government improve its financial management by working with OMB and Treasury to support financial system migrations to financial shared service providers.”

Casella said he will stay in the role of CFO until the agency hires a new one.

“Since I arrived at the GSA in early 2013, I have been honored to work alongside all of you. Together we have helped manage the finances of this agency during a time of shrinking federal budgets and consolidation of financial and other services at GSA,” he wrote. “Your efforts have resulted in two budgets that redirect resources from overhead to direct program support and investment, a clean audit opinion, and significant progress in standing up a consolidated OCFO, helping our coworkers at GSA and throughout the federal government provide the American people with the highest quality of service possible.”

Casella came to GSA after spending time as the director of the office of budget and resource management at the U.S. Agency for International Development. He also spent time at the Millennium Challenge Corporation and 13 years with OMB.
