What is this meeting about?
Fugro’s Global Job Architecture is becoming even more important than it already was, as it is the backbone for many programs. Not only people-related, but also for the ERP platform.
As such, the success of these programs is dependent on correctly mapping employees to a job profile and maintaining consistency across regions.
We provide managers with guidelines and tools that support them in mapping their team members to the Global Job Architecture.

Key take-aways:
The recent session on Global Job Architecture (GJA) highlighted how organizations can strengthen their HR backbone through transparency, governance, and skills integration. The discussion emphasized why clear frameworks are essential for fair reward systems and organizational agility.
Here are the key takeaways:
- GJA is a structural backbone, not a career ladder – It ensures consistency in job mapping and supports multiple HR programs.
- Governance clarity matters – Regional champions and mandatory training drive compliance and engagement.
- Salary structure discipline is critical – Freeze base pay for outliers and reward performance via lump sums to maintain fairness.
- Measure success with data – Use grade distribution analysis and industry benchmarks to prevent grade inflation.
- Skills taxonomy is emerging – Integrating skills alongside competencies offers future-proofing for diverse roles.
Organizations that embrace these principles will be better equipped to align talent strategies with business needs and market trends.
