HR Roles

Hi all,

Just for knowledge and for my own progression, I was wondering whether you could explain the difference in job roles and responsibilities in an SME between:

HR Advisor

HR Team Leader

HR Manager

If you're a HR Advisor or Team Leader and they don't currently have a HR Manager how do you take that leap in change? What would the expectations be?

Thanks :)

    Lewis Caroll put it this way :
    "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less."
    Job titles only really have meaning in the context of the company where they are applied. At the extreme I have seen start-ups of 5 people with a Chief People Officer or an HR Director; equally in another company, HR Coordinator was the title given to a job charged with co-ordinating the worldwide HR policies of a very large multinational across the 7 subsidiaries in Latin America which made up 35.000 staff - the national HR directors all reportad into this regional job.
    Practically speaking the only way to understand what is behind each of the roles is to talk to the company in question, because they will almost certainly vary from company to company.
