Volume 8 – Foreign Aided Project Management Manual<br />

Specific Job Descriptions – Introduction<br />

SPECIFIC JOB DESCRIPTIONS<br />

INTRODUCTION<br />

These written job descriptions will help officers understand their roles in the RHD organisation,<br />

and therefore help to avoid misunderstandings. The job descriptions will also serve as a good<br />

starting point when officers are transferred between wings, zones and FAPs.<br />

The job descriptions will be maintained by the Administration & Establishment Division -<br />

Administration & Establishment Circle and the current updated versions will be available on<br />

the RHD Intranet. Training will be given to the Class 1 officers to enable them to develop the job<br />

descriptions of their subordinates. The job descriptions for the posts required for all <strong>project</strong>s are<br />

included in this <strong>manual</strong>.<br />

Feedback is important and all officers are encouraged to discuss their job descriptions with their<br />

superior officer(s).<br />

GENERAL JOB DESCRIPTIONS<br />

All RHD officers are delegated defined responsibilities according to their grade. The details of<br />

these duties and authorities are given in the general job descriptions. These include both<br />

administrative duties and financial authorities, and are the same for each grade of officer<br />

irrespective of the specific details of his or her current post. The general job descriptions are<br />

detailed in the RHD Management Manual - Volume 1 of the RHD Management Plan.<br />

SPECIFIC JOB DESCRIPTIONS<br />

In addition to the general job descriptions for each grade of officer, every post has specific<br />

duties and functions. These duties and functions are detailed in the specific job descriptions<br />

(SJD) for each post, which form part of the individual RHD <strong>management</strong> <strong>manual</strong>s.<br />

The specific job descriptions for the positions required for all FAPs are included in this section.<br />

Other possible <strong>project</strong> positions include Additional Project Director (SE), Deputy Project<br />

Manager (SDE) and AE and SAEs. The SJD of these positions have not been detailed in this<br />

<strong>manual</strong>, as they are either required to support higher officers or fulfil specific functional duties<br />

such as resettlement officer, and therefore vary significantly from <strong>project</strong> to <strong>project</strong>. The size and<br />

type of the <strong>project</strong> will dictate the number and type of positions required.<br />
