Introduction

Learn what a role profile is, and how to find the role profile you have been matched to.
Role profiles explained
Role profiles are used to understand the level and size of a post in relation to other posts within the council for grading purposes. They describe the main components, impact and complexity of a post rather than task level detail which are found in the job outline.
A role profile contains the:
- role purpose
- accountabilities
- knowledge, skills and experience required
- dimensions of role
- working conditions
- working arrangements
Role profiles describe at least 80% of a post and may be tailored to a service area or apply to many roles across the council.
