I can certainly sympathize with you.  I work for an international
manufacturing company with over 7,000 employees.  I'm the Records
Management Coordinator one day a week-- the rest of the time I work as
Executive Assistant to the President.  I've been pushing to make my RM
position full time, but so far they haven't seen the need.  If you have
any suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

Subject: [RM] Size of Records Management Department


 
I was wondering about the average size of a records management
department.  I work for a pharmaceutical company that has 3,500
employees throughout eight different site locations and an outside sales
force.  Over the last year and 1/2, I have assisted our consultant with
the creation of the retention schedules and I have been placed in charge
of our RM program without having any previous experience.  I am trying
to convince our Company to hire an experienced Records Manager and was
wondering if anyone could share the size of their department with me.

Thank you,
Rebecca Wolfe
