Hi Vimee,
if I'm not wrong, the difference between role & designation can be curved out like this:
while Recruitment Executive is a designation, the roles played under this are CV Sourcer, Telecalling, Candidates Screening, Interviewing, Document & Background Verifying, etc.
While for an employee in a company, the designation On-paper is 1 but roles to be played under it may be multiples.
Every role can be a designation in itself, but no vice-versa.
Hope this is enough to understand the difference between roles & designations.

Designation is for identification purpose. It will be given on the experience. Where as the Role is the exact position of the person with the exact role he is expected to play. A person may be a HR Manager. He may not play the roll of the HR Head it there is already a Sr. Manager/ AGM-HR, who will be the HR Head.

hi,
Yes there is a vast difference between Role & Designation.
Role includes Job description & specification.
Designation is a name given by Organization to an individual pertaining to the role.
Role is comprehensive whereas Designation is brief/short.
Role is formalised as per the Designation.

Hi,
Yes, there is a difference between role and designation
For better understanding lets put it in this way.
Designation = Tag given to an employee through which he is being recognized
Role = With the given designation what roles are expected to perform.
Designation = Ex: JR HR, Sr HR, HR Lead, HR Mgr, HR admin, etc.
Role = The activities which are expected out of the designation.
One way you can say that designation is an identity given and role is the activity to meet the identity.
Hope this helps

Hi, every one
For any employee there should be both Designation and role for that designation.
Designation is used to identify the role of any employee in the organization, this may be true only when there is a clear cut clarity in the role defined for a designation.
So every designation has a role.
While Designation is a single term which plays as identifer. Role could be multiple, so a designation could have multiple roles (Activities)
hope this helps.

Hai,
Hope you are satisfied with the above answers. But still i will put it in simple way
Role : performing duties and responsibilities as described by co (eg: separation officer, who takes care of release formalities of the resigned employees)
There will not be any promotions in the role
Designation : Where we have promotions in this like exe, sr exe,asst mgr, mgr etc.
so the separation officer can be designated as any of the above.
