Description
Supervises overall efforts of the art/graphic design group. Determines or reviews specifications for projects and provides supervision of artwork and photography. Negotiates and purchases services of outside studios/engravers/art services. Incumbents at this level 'lead and direct' a group of three or more individuals. There is virtually no authority for personnel actions normally associated with full supervisory status (e.g., salary increases, promotions, performance reviews, disciplinary actions). Coordinates the day-to-day operations of a group of employees. 'Leading and directing' is usually restricted to assigning, monitoring and reviewing progress and accuracy of work, directing efforts and providing technical guidance on more complex issues. Most of the work time is spent performing many of the same duties as subordinate employees. Under FLSA, incumbents in this position are nonexempt.
