The hiring manager and potential new manager should use this as a framework for a conversation about the role.
You may not have all of the answers yet and that’s ok - what’s more important is that together you get clear on what still needs to be planned out and how/when that’s going to happen.
By the end of the conversation you should have a much clearer idea about the finer details of the role.

Hey, I’m Bianca!
I help tech businesses to prepare their staff for management positions so that they can build high performing, innovative and happy teams.
I’ve worked in the tech industry for over 20 years, specialising in building close knit, agile teams in fast moving environments for brand new business functions.
After qualifying as a coach I transformed the way I managed my team. They quickly developed in ways I hadn’t realised were possible and were able and eager to take on far more ownership of projects, freeing me up to become the senior leader I wanted to be.
Retention improved and the quality of work was second to none.
Coaching had transformed the team culture.
I live in Leeds with my husband, daughter and our two bunnies. When I’m not coaching I love swimming in the local river or scuba diving anywhere I can find some water!
