We consider this request closed. Sincerely, ko,,o( As requested by Rita Taylor Town Clerk, Custodian of the Records STRUCTURE OF JOB DESCRIPTION The terminology used is listed by the following categories: Job Title - The job title is the official title to be used for payroll, position control, and other personnel and budget records. In a series where Roman numerals are used to indicate more than one level of work, the numeral "P' always denotes the lowest level, the numeral "IP' the next higher level, etc. General Statement of Job - This section describes in a brief statement the general type of work that is done and the location of the position within the organization. It also describes by detailed statements the primary and secondary functions of the job, distinguishing characteristics of the job, supervisory responsibilities if applicable, and reporting relationships. The following guidelines are utilized when describing the level of supervision received by the position: Direct or close supervision: Employee is given precise instructions for task - oriented, often repetitive duties. Employee strictly follows established methods and procedures, with all but minor variations referred to the supervisor. General or occasional supervision: Work is performed to a large extent by independent judgment exercised under the employee's own responsibility. Some direction is provided after assignment, however employee has some choice of method and occasionally develops their own methods. Limited supervision: Broad objectives are outlined. Work is judged primarily on overall results with great latitude in determining work methods and assignment requirements. Employee has greater authority over assignments and decisions required to meet assignment requirements. Little or no direct supervision: Employee has responsibility for exercising broad judgment and coordination of methods within broad framework of general policy. Specific Duties and Responsibilities - This section is a prioritized listing of the specific duties and responsibilities of the job, including identification of essential and additional, or non-essential, job functions. "Essential" and "additional' job functions are identified in keeping with provisions of the "Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990" (ADA) and the "Civil Rights Act of 1964" as amended in 1991, which require that employers make employment decisions based upon an applicant's ability to 0 DMG, 1994 perform the essential functions of the job with or without reasonable accommodation of physical or mental handicaps the applicant may have. Minimum Training and Experience - This section is a statement of the minimum qualification requirements for the position, which an applicant for a vacant position should possess at the time of appointment. As prerequisites, these requirements represent the minimum combination of training and experience not only from the point of view of the work to be performed but also the kinds of applicants that can most readily be obtained in the labor market. Special Requirements - This section lists specific licenses or certificates needed by an employee to perform a given job. Minimum Qualifications or Standards Required to Perform Essential Job Functions - The entries in this section serve to illustrate the physical and mental abilities usual- ly associated with adequate performance of the essential functions of a given job. The criteria listed here are implicit to provisions of the ADA which require that employers make "reasonable accommodations" to enable disabled employees to per- form the essential functions of a job he or she is otherwise qualified to perform. Knowledge, Skills and Abilities - Knowledge, skills and abilities set forth the requirements of employees for successful work performance in the position. Knowledge is listed first as the subjects, topics and items of information or learning which an employee should know. Furthermore, degrees or amounts of knowledge are indicated through the use of phrases that have the meanings indicated as follows: "Some Knowledge" - implies familiarity only with the elementary principles and terminology. "Working" or "General Knowledge" - these terms should be used interchangeably to imply sufficient knowledge of the subject to enable the employee to work efficiently within a normal range of standard work situations with only general supervision. Ordinarily, a college graduate in a particular field should have a general knowledge of the subject matter of that field. An individual seeking employment as a tradesman should have a working knowledge of the methods, tools, techniques and practices of that trade. "Considerable Knowledge" - implies enough knowledge of the subject to enable the employee to work independently without direct supervision and to assume responsi- bility for the solution of unusual as well as commonplace work problems. "Thorough Knowledge" - implies an advanced knowledge and comprehensive under- standing of the subject matter, which will permit not only the solution of unusual © DMG, 1994 2 work problems, but also advising on technical questions and planning methods for difficult work situations. Statements of required knowledge are followed by statements of skills and abilities, in that order. These are indications of what an employee must be able to do on the job. While there is considerable overlap in the definitions of these two terms, skills generally apply to (1) technical, manual or manipulative proficiency or (2) proficiency that is learned or acquired through training. Abilities, on the other hand, relate more to aptitudes or personal and social attributes, which tend to be innate or acquired without formal instruction. 0 DMG, 1994 TOWN OF GULF STREAM JOB DESCRIPTION JOB TITLE: FINANCE DIRECTOR ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT Under limited supervision, performs highly responsible administrative and fiscal control work for Town government.
