A job description sets out the key responsibilities of a role, and the main tasks associated with each responsibility.
Key responsibilities and main tasks may be revised over time, proposed to the Registrar, and agreed in writing.
Key responsibilities indicate the skill level of the role, and determine the grade assigned to the role.
Key responsibilities should be balanced in terms of total time commitment, and revisions should continue that balance.
