Interview existing employees to determine job tasks/deliverables.
Write up the position plans (in a consistent format) and review with direct manager for approval.
Review the organizational proposal for the new site and work with our ED to define positions required.
Based on discussions with leadership, create an employee orientation approach and content.
Review all new materials and processes with our staff.
