The Benefits of Dual Career Structures

Lisette Howlett, MLH Global HR

This briefing provides information on the use and benefits - as well as a practical guide - to setting up and ensuring the effectiveness of dual career structures.

A dual career structure is an organisation/job structure that allows 'experts' or ‘sole contributors' to progress within the organisation to positions that attract the same level of pay, benefits and status as senior management. Such an approach can significantly enhance the career options within the organisation, reduce the flow into management roles of ambitious and highly skilled individuals who are not natural managers (nor really wish to be), provide a focus for innovation, creativity and ensure the development of deep expertise within the organisation.

The briefing provides a range of practical tips on how to implement dual career structures for the mutual benefit of the organization and the individual.
