Under section 159 of the Local Government Act 2001, each County and City Manager is responsible for staffing and organisational arrangements necessary for carrying out the functions of the local authorities for which he or she is responsible.

Due to the particular nature of the Local Government Sector, with thirty four County and City Councils of differing scales, providing a range of services in urban and rural settings, there are organisation structures and job titles that are specific to particular local authorities.

Information regarding the main grades, common throughout the local authority system, is provided in the following tables. Generally, where there are job titles specific to a particular local authority the pay scale will be set at an equivalent level to that of an analogous grade from the list below.
