A job description defines the expectations of the employer and the employee, clearly defining the employee's skills and responsibilities. It is generally part of a wider framework of assessment of company functions and the introduction of a new remuneration system. It is therefore preceded by a strategic thinking with the company's management (defining the position of the function within the organisation, the success indicators and a skills dictionary). In terms of vocabulary, we distinguish between the notions of "function" and "position". For example
- The function groups together all the people who share the same mission and responsibilities. It is generic and not nominative.
- The position refers to a precise workplace and specific tasks within a function. The position is therefore nominative.
