Position Management<\/h1>\n

The Budget Office is responsible for managing positions that tie into the funding for that job. The position will be located in an organizational unit (division, department, etc.) and report to another full-time benefit eligible position. That position may also have other positions that report to it. A position has a certain work location, an organizational cost center to charge pay costs, and may define a specific budgeted amount for salary. A position does not represent a specific person but rather the work which needs to be performed. Please visit our FAQ’s<\/a> page.<\/p>\n
