Market-driven compensation and transparency regarding possible career paths and salary development were identified as key success factors. Neither of these had been clear or available up to that point.<\/p>\n

In order to achieve the necessary clarity and transparency for existing and future employees, a grading framework needed to be developed and introduced.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tab][vc_tab title=”SERVICE” tab_id=”3616ffa5-6ad1-7″][vc_column_text css=””]Br\u00f6ker + Partner worked with an internal project team to develop a tailor-made grading framework. This included a clear description of all IT roles at all levels with the associated requirements. In addition to management levels, specialist levels were also defined with their own career paths. A salary survey was purchased as a benchmark and integrated into the framework.<\/p>\n

Br\u00f6ker + Partner also managed the implementation and the necessary transformation. Intensive communication and training for all managers and employees ensured a smooth introduction.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tab][vc_tab title=”RESULTS” tab_id=”1524581970516-2-7″][vc_column_text css=””]The grading framework enabled management to assess the marketability of current salaries and respond accordingly.

EVALUATION \/ RESULTS<\/h5>\n

The grading framework was successfully introduced, and the roles and requirements were described. Career paths for managers and specialists were described and communicated within the company. Managers and employees accepted the grading framework as a very positive innovation. Transparency regarding one's own position and possible career paths was established and also received very positive feedback. The framework has proven to be a facilitator and success factor for recruiting.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” background_image=”36749″ z_index=””][vc_column offset=”vc_col-md-offset-3 vc_col-md-6″][vc_separator type=”transparent” thickness=”50″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

LESSONS LEARNED<\/span><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” thickness=”5″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

A major challenge was to match the roles actually performed with the target roles of the framework and to change current roles in the process. A success factor for the entire project was that a lot of time was taken for the introduction and transformation<\/p>\n
