Citywide Classification and Compensation Survey

The City of Exeter is seeking proposals from qualified consulting firms to conduct a comprehensive citywide classification and compensation survey. This survey will encompass all full-time City positions. The goal of this survey is to ensure competitive, equitable, and consistent compensation across the City’s workforce. The survey is expected to be completed on or before March 1, 2026. • The selected consultant will be responsible for job analysis and classification review, market compensation survey, internal equity analysis, and final report and presentation. • The consultant will evaluate current classification structure for clarity, internal equity, and market alignment. • The consultant will identify appropriate comparable agencies and benchmark positions, collect and analyze salary and benefit data, and make recommendations for adjustments. • The consultant will prepare a detailed report of findings, analyses, and recommendations and present the final report to City Council and CLOCEA for informational purposes.
