This section provides information for employees and heads of school/departments about the job evaluation and re-grading process.
The job evaluation and re-grading guidance is applicable to all roles within the Technical Services (TS), Administrative, Professional and Managerial (APM) and the Operations and Facilities (O&F) job family.
When creating a new role, additional roles and redesigned roles, it is important to consider organisation design principles. For advice in role design and in completing the documents required for assessment, please discuss the role with your HR Business Partner.
- Prior to submitting a job level assessment request form, you should have the approval from the budget holder to implement a structural change
- Re-grade requests can be requested by the faculty/school/department at any time where they can demonstrate that there has been a substantial change to the requirements of the role since the last grading outcome
- A job evaluation request should be submitted by completing the job level assessment request form
Before submitting a job level assessment request form, you must have the following documents ready:
-
- Job profile – if the request is for a post that has significantly changed, please put all changes in tracked changes
- Structure chart - this should show all relevant reports above and below so that context and breadth of the role are clear. For management roles, this should ideally include full-time equivalent numbers of staff in each area they manage and budget size (where applicable)
- Additional information form (AIF) - this form will enable evaluators to understand the context a role is operating in; click the link here to download the additional information form, also available here within the HR forms index
- Re-grade panels take place bi-weekly with trade unions – the full schedule of panels are available here.
