General Concept: Responsible supervisory or specialist human resource work of a developmental nature or otherwise having broad managerial implications.

Position Types:

Specialist-Analyst: This class allocation represents high responsibility specialist assignment markedly stronger than the 2 (full journeyman) level. Positions of this type are of the developmental level. In a central human resource agency position assignments involve setting of human resource standards and evaluation of human resource programs, procedures, and overall work quality. In a departmental human resource office, assignment to this class typically would require technical developmental responsibilities involving unusually complex or involved functions of high impact, or with lead and major project management responsibilities. Specialist-analyst positions involving highly technical or specialty functions should be considered closely for this class if the function is developmental, complex, and involves major impact or consequences for the Commonwealth’s human resource program.

Supervisor-Chief: At the central agency level, a supervisory position of this type typically would involve a sub-function or sub-section. At the departmental level, a position of this type typically would supervise a cluster of functions in a small department, a single high impact function in a department of medium size, or a major sub-section in a large department.

Manager-Director: At the departmental level, a position of this type typically would direct a partial program in a small department. At the field level, a position typically would be considered for this class with a moderate or full program involving institutions and colleges with a normal variety of employee occupations and work complications.
