Thank you, Gee. Most helpful.
I have found out that the charitable foundation was wholly within the remit of the DF&A - client management and financial reporting. However, a few years ago the taking of minutes (only) was placed within the remit of the Facilities Co-ordinator. The foundation work was then transferred to the part-timer, as I noted in my first post. At no time did the Facilities Co-ordinator raise any concerns about this situation formally.
My company is re-structuring and the administration of the foundation has been transferred to the company's group secretariat office. This office is headed by the CEO and it is where my role sits, along with my assistant.
All the secretariat were aware of my new role being established and the elements it would contain. If they didn't understand it, then that is not the fault of management because everything was explained to them several times.
The question then remains: why is this an issue now? Having spoken with the CEO and the DF&A this morning, the answer is that this is about money. Part of the re-structuring of the company comprises evaluating jobs and salaries. More territory = more money.
I guess we all have to navigate through the sometimes-murky waters of office politics, but in my company there is a core group of people who do not wish for ANY change EVER to take place. And no-one can manage, persuade, etc them out of this.
It's all very wearing, but I have batted this particular ball where it belongs. We'll have to see what happens next.
