What the Crew Supervisor family covers
Crew Supervisor works as an umbrella classification: 26 different specializations share the title across 27 codes. The family straddles jurisdictions: 22 state and 3 both state and local, so parts of it are hired by state departments and parts by local civil service employers.
Skilled and semi-skilled labor is the part of the classification plan that never moved to a degree. Qualification rests on demonstrated ability, and for a great many of these titles the operative credential is a valid New Jersey driver's license of the right class rather than a diploma. The work is also the most physically specific in the plan, which is why the specifications read as lists of tasks and equipment instead of the general responsibility language used elsewhere. Because public works, water and sewer utilities, parks and school plants each run their own yards, near-identical jobs end up as separate title codes in separate places.

6 of the 27 titles carry a license or certification requirement. On how the jobs are filled: 23 are competitive, filled from an eligible list after an open competitive or promotional examination and 2 are non-competitive, appointed on proof of the stated qualifications rather than by examination.

State payroll only, deduplicated by payroll title; local employers file separately, so a family with local codes looks smaller here than it is. How this is counted.

Where these jobs exist
Because the family mixes jurisdictions, the answer to "who hires this" depends on the specific code. State codes run through the Civil Service Commission's announcement and eligible list process; local codes are hired by the counties, municipalities and authorities that adopted civil service under Title 11A. Check an employer's status before assuming a title is available where you live.
