Set your internal equity of jobs in the organization to decide the relative job weightage to different jobs in accordance with its importance to your business process. Then work out the pay band of the salary range to fix the job price range, and then allot points using a scale as provided below. This will allow you to determine the job price with internal equity and external market competitiveness.

External competitiveness will depend on your market survey or the current salary trends for such positions, competencies, and skills. This tool is offered as a principle to arrive at internal equity and pricing of jobs, but you have to use your salary grade scale for different positions and award points based on the evaluation using the scale provided.

Points allotted may vary depending on your organization's philosophy and where exactly you want this position to be placed within the organization.

Thanks rajsawster. I got the question incorrect. Basically, I have been offered this job. How much can I expect in terms of compensation and benefits keeping in mind the job description and my background?

Dear Raj,

I have some doubts regarding the statements in this job description where you mentioned that this is the Job Description for GM-HR.

1. The job description states that the role reports to the GM HR and assists company managers with HR issues. However, the clarification is needed on how the GM reports to the GM and assists the managers.

2. The job involves using Recognition and Coaching tools to build Restaurant Excellence and Continuous Improvement. This aspect seems more aligned with a Hotel Manager's responsibilities, involving assisting the Manager and holding the GM-HR position.

Your experience also indicates that you have 80% (5+ years) in F&B operations and restaurant management. This raises questions about the authenticity of the entire job description.

Best regards,
Raj

1. The position is not titled as GM-HR. I'll be reporting to the GM HR. The position's name is confidential, not a generic one.

2. Point 2 in the JD refers to driving recognition/coaching practices in 100+ restaurants pan India.

3. I excelled greatly in people practices and innovated quite a few that are now regarded as best practices in our market. That was the reason for my transition from operations to a seemingly strategic HR-Ops post.

Hope this clarifies.

You need to benchmark 7 years in the F&B industry only. You will not be able to benchmark with another industry like MFG or IT. If you are really looking for numbers as your answer, only the F&B professionals can respond to this question, which will be very limited.

I operated as a Retail Store Manager for this company situated in upper casual dining restaurants for over 5 years. I oversaw operations, administration, HR at the store level (including recruitment), payroll, local marketing plan development and implementation, brand awareness, corporate sales, etc.

Hope that clarifies where I am coming from.

It's not you who will decide your market price. My friend, it's the market that decides based on demand and supply.

Evaluation of the job in question can only be done by hiring companies that determine your job price according to their business economics. We don't know what grade of business and profit margins they operate on, and what level of expertise they desire. These days, shopping malls like Carrefour, Walmart, etc., have set different standards in that context where your employer rates his business practices.

Hi,

This is Sudhir. Please help me, somebody. I am working as an HR & Admin Executive in a Private Limited Company in Karnataka. I have four years of experience in the above position and I am very familiar with the job responsibilities. However, I have failed two times in interviews for the HR & Admin Executive position in Maharashtra, Pune.

Thank you.
