Job Descriptions, Job Evaluation and Grading
Job evaluation and grading measure the relative size of each role, then group roles into a fair, consistent grade structure. Tuscan runs job analysis, writes job descriptions, applies widely used evaluation methods and builds grading structures that anchor fair pay.
Job Analysis & Job Descriptions
Tuscan Consulting helps clients develop consistent and high-quality job descriptions. We have experienced consultants trained to conduct job analysis and systematically gather information to produce job descriptions. For large restructuring or organisation design projects, our AI JD Agent and JD Batch Generator, part of the Consultex AI platform, can draft hundreds of structured, bias-reviewed job profiles in a single run, each aligned to your grading framework.
Sound grading underpins fair reward and clear structure. It links directly to our compensation and benefits and organisation design services, so every role sits at the right level and the right pay.
Did you know?
Job analysis is a systematic process of gathering information to
produce job descriptions. Job descriptions typically reflect
responsibilities, skills & competencies required from the job
holder. Job descriptions are an important tool for many HR areas
including recruitment, job evaluation & grading, compensation
management, performance management, organization design
effectiveness, assessment, training and succession planning. Job
descriptions must focus on the job and not the job holder. It may
include a description of the context within which the job is
carried out, and an analysis of the job in terms of the criteria
used in a job evaluation method.
Job Evaluation & Grading
At Tuscan Consulting, we have the capability to deploy widely used job evaluation methods and grading techniques to help our clients create fair, consistent and sound grading structures.
Did you know?
Job evaluation is a systematic process for establishing the
relative worth of jobs within an organisation. In other words, job
evaluation is a process of quantifying jobs with a numerical score
to compare them with each other withing an organization. Job
evaluation scores are used to create a hierarchy of jobs called a
grading structure with classes, levels or groups into which jobs
of the same or similar value are grouped for remuneration
purposes. Usually, all jobs in a grade have the same pay range:
minimum, midpoint and maximum. However, sometimes different jobs
in the same pay grade have different pay ranges, due to market
conditions & job characteristics, for instance sales jobs.

Grading structures feed into pay, performance and progression, all of which sit within our HR consulting services.
Grading work needs local benchmarks, something HR consulting firms in Dubai hold from years of market data.

Frequently asked questions
What is job evaluation?
A systematic way to measure the relative worth of jobs in an organisation, based on factors such as knowledge, problem solving and accountability, not the person in the role.

Why do job descriptions matter for grading?
They are the evidence base. Clear, consistent job descriptions that focus on the job, not the job holder, make evaluation fair and defensible.

Yes. For large restructures, our AI JD Agent and JD Batch Generator draft hundreds of structured job profiles aligned to your grades, reviewed by our consultants.
