If departments are replacing an existing position and wish to make changes to the job duties or other aspects, it is advisable to contact the Compensation team at compensation@uta.edu. They will provide guidance and support in these situations.

Please make sure to attach an updated job description when contacting the Compensation team, as changing job duties may sometimes require a complete title change. Including the current and updated job description will assist them with assessing the necessary adjustments accurately.
