Job Description

A Project Job Description defines the objectives and responsibilities of a particular role on a project. Completing a Job Description Template ensures the skills, experience and qualifications needed to fulfill the role are clearly defined. A Job Description may also be referred to as a "Position Description".

When do I use a Job Description? A Project Job Description should be completed every time a new role is identified. The Project Job Description should clearly state the objectives and responsibilities of the role and where it fits within the organizational structure.

While creating a Job Description you will:

  • Define the real purpose of the role
  • List the key responsibilities of the role
  • Define who this role will be reporting to
  • Create a detailed Organizational Chart
  • List the skills and experience needed
  • Define any relevant qualifications
  • Set out the key performance criteria
  • Identify the salary and working conditions
