About job families

The job family framework at Hertfordshire County Council is made up of 9 job families. Within each family there are several levels. Those levels reflect the knowledge, skills and abilities required to carry out roles within a family. This means that it is possible to compare the ‘size’ of roles which undertake very different work. 

Each level in each job family has its own job outline:

Business Support Services

Community Services

Corporate Services

Health and Social Care Services

Operational Services

Organisational Leadership

Project and Programme

Regulatory Services

Technical Services
