Hi Thirumurugan,
Designation is the post or rank of a person in the organization concerning grade or scale.
Position refers to the duties of the person within that specific organization.
A job title indicates the department in which you work, such as Administration, Sales, Management, Marketing, etc.
This is to the best of my knowledge.

Don't know about India, but in Australia, all three things basically mean the same.
In my last job/position, I worked for the government. The only difference was in Position as it designated where I was in the organisation.
Job Title - Administration Officer Grade 3 - that was on the Position Description
Position - Administration Officer Grade 3 - xxxx Division - also on the Position Description
Designation - Administration Officer Grade 3 - and that was what was on my Payslip
The "unofficial" job title was Executive Assistant.
Sounds like another one of those things where people get hung up on meaningless job titles to try and give themselves imaginary status.

(Fact Checked)-The information provided is generally correct. In Australia, job title, position, and designation can often be used interchangeably. However, there may be subtle differences depending on the organization. Great job on explaining the distinctions based on your experience. (1 Acknowledge point)

Hi Thirumurugan,
I read your post on organization structure.
JOB describes a common skill set such as Manager, Executive, Supervisor, etc.
POSITION describes a specific skill set such as HR Manager, Production Manager, Quality Manager, Finance Manager, Sales Manager, etc.
DESIGNATION also specifies a specific position or rank in the organization structure.

A ‘position’ refers to a status of an individual, which is generally earned by him/her on their performance. It may also refer to the rank of an individual in an organization or society. In a job profile, it’s a post assigned to any such individual.
A ‘designation’ refers to someone or something that are classified or designed on a position which is different from others; or in simple terms, it’s an act of assigning a person into a non-elective position. Any designation refers to an individuals working position, it is a common term to know what exactly is that persons working post.

(Fact Checked)-Position refers to the title or role an individual holds in an organization. Designation is the specific title assigned to that individual within the organization. Job title is the name given to the position or designation. The user's explanation is accurate. (1 Acknowledge point)

I have gone through the link referred to by Mr. Simhan. Of course, employment in the academic side of a university or any other teaching institution has always had certain distinct features. However, in general employment parlance, the terms "job title" and "designation" appear to me to be one and the same, indicating the specific job handled by the employee, whereas "position" indicates the general level or place in the organizational hierarchy.
