How Should I Structure Our Software Company's Hierarchy When Everyone Reports to Directors?

annverghese13
The company where I work is a software company that currently consists of 40 employees. We are currently working on establishing a hierarchy structure and implementing set processes. We have two managing directors, and I serve as the administration manager. My question is: do I report directly to the directors? There are other individuals (HR, Operations Manager, Marketing team, etc.) who also report directly to the directors. Apart from the reporting aspect, they expect me to fully manage the office. With the exception of project-related details and marketing, I am responsible for handling everything. How should I create the hierarchy chart for this?

An Admin Manager will always report to the MD, PD, or CEO, etc., due to the nature of the work. The suggested admin hierarchy chart could be something like this:

1. MD
2. Admin Manager
3. Assistant Manager, Admin
4. Admin Team to carry out the following tasks continuously:
- Security
- Safety & Fire Fighting
- Reception
- Transport
- Guest House
- Visitor
- Office
- Environment & Arboricultural
- Local Civil & Police Dept Liaison
- Local Industrial Relationship Liaison

I believe this hierarchy should work effectively for you. Please present it to your Company Bosses for their consideration and implementation.

With warm wishes.

"Hi Ann, \"Manage Office Fully???? I guess you need to be more specific. To redesign the Org chart for the company and its reporting structure, you need to use various strategies and tools. Just because directors want everyone to report to you does not necessarily mean the org chart will be structured in that way.

Guidelines for Framing an Org Chart

Here are some links providing guidelines for framing an org chart. Read more articles to seek guidance, and based on your business model, create your own org chart:

Tip: Involve all stakeholders and leaders affected by this organizational change. Ensure that the 'Authority and Accountability' of each department does not conflict with others, with ultimate power resting with the directors.
