Executive Search Services - Detailed Descriptions

EXECUTIVE SEARCH PROCESS (ESP)
This process provides training and direction to
client organizations to ensure that the Minister matches the Mission. ESP is designed to assist Dioceses, Religious Congregations, Agencies, Parishes and National Organizations in the recruitment, screening, selection and orientation of candidates for major positions. The NACPA consultant assists the search committee in doing a needs analysis of the organization before developing a profile of the characteristics and experiences which the successful candidate should possess. The NACPA consultant then provides guidance to the search committee in developing the position description, advertising the position, designing the interview format, pre-screening candidates, negotiating agreements, communicating with candidates and the public and orienting the candidate to the mission and culture of the organization. Human resource related positions are automatically posted on this website.


COMPENSATION SERVICES

COMPENSATION CONSULTATION
This service assists dioceses, national organizations, religious congregations, parishes and other church-related organizations in developing their compensation philosophy and procedures, in structuring pay and benefits plans based on their philosophy of compensation and in developing other aspects of their compensation program tailored to their organizational needs. These include:

• developing a job evaluation system (market ranking, point factor, etc.) to determine internal equity among jobs within your organization,
• obtaining and analyzing comparable job market data to determine external equity between your jobs and those in similar organizations, and to recommend appropriate pay ranges.
• proposing pay adjustment strategies and models to assure individual equity among employees within your organization.

Compensation system consulting services also evaluate the organization's compliance with compensation related legal requirements and recommend approaches to handling everyday workplace problems such as setting initial hire rates, handling requests for job re-evaluation, determining the amount of annual increases and maintaining competitiveness over the years.

PAY RATE UPDATE
The Pay Rate Update offers an inexpensive way to maintain a compensation system after it has been installed. To maintain a compensation system, salary survey data needs to be obtained and analyzed. Pay Rate Update assists organizations with this potentially difficult and costly effort. NACPA conducts several national salary surveys and purchases others for use during compensation audits. NACPA consultants can review your pay program and recommend adjustments and models for distributing pay increase based on the data and your philosophy for setting pay rates. To be most effective, review and adjustments should be made on an annual basis.
