Global Job
A global job is assigned to each Bayer employee based on their role and responsibilities. It is a grouping of related positions that have similar tasks and work. It's used for various purposes, including skills identification, reporting, and authorization.
The catalog is organized hierarchically to capture professional job content / work / expertise. Each job is part of a job group (highest level) and job family.
- Job Group – Broad groupings of jobs that may align with one or more professions (e.g. Research & Development / R&D, Marketing & Sales, Finance)
- Job Family – A collection of logically-related global jobs within a job group (e.g., jobs under Biological R&D, jobs under Chemical R&D)
- Global Job – Groupings of one or more positions that have similar tasks - where common work activities can be described in a generalized job description
To navigate the Job Catalog we recommended that you start with the Job Group that best captures the work that you do, and then proceed to a likely Job Family and then review the jobs within the job family. You can also search job descriptions by keyword.
NOTE: Job groups are NOT the same as business functions/organizations within Bayer. For example, employees working within an R&D business function may be in jobs classified under a range of job groups – including General Administration & Services, R&D, Information Technology. Conversely, employees in jobs within the Information Technology job group (e.g., Data Scientist) could work in a variety of business functions - including Human Resources, Marketing & Sales, R&D and Information Technology.
