Historically, the Finance Department and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) were organizationally separate departments in Pinal County - Finance focusing on transactional processing, recording, reporting compliance, grants, and procurement; while OMB has focused on financial planning, financial management, and operation resources.

The two departments' functions have many shared customers and opportunities for synergies. The County Manager's Office has made the decision to merge the two departments into one. Angie Woods, the current Director of the Office of Management and Budget, will lead the two teams, effective immediately.

Angie joined Pinal County in 2008. She has served in accounting roles in both the Public Health and Information Technology departments. Angie began working for the Office of Management and Budget in 2013 as a Management and Budget Analyst. In 2018, she was promoted to Director. Angie has her Bachelor of Science and Master's Degrees in Business-Accounting.

Deputy County Manager MaryEllen Sheppard said of the appointment, "Angie is a competent and dedicated professional and has consistently demonstrated her commitment to the vision and mission of Pinal County and each of its Offices and departments. We all know and appreciate her spirit of teamwork and customer service. We are grateful for her willingness to take on this expanded role and are confident in her future success and that of the teams she will lead."
