• Band one is delivering fundamentals, this is the level you would be at if you are a HR Administrator.
• Band two is adviser, issue-led, you are likely to be at this level if you are a HR advisor or manages a small team. This is what band I am currently at as I am an Assistant HR Manager in my organisation, I am advising and managing a team, I handle HR issues and give flexible options and recommendations.
• Band three is Consultant, co-operative partner, this is the band I was working towards do currently do parts of this band like address the HR challenges, I give solutions to these challenges and I have a seat an management meetings.
• Band four is Leadership colleague, client confidante and coach, this bank is more if you are a partner or HR Manager/director.
