HR manager and the 'clearinghouse'
Hi,
Please have a look at this:
[About the HR manager] Part of your job will be to serve as a clearinghouse for operating manages’ recommendations for reductions, department by department, as they figure out how to get their break even point as low as possible without jeopardizing the business’s future.
Does 'clearinghouse' mean the place in the company where information goes in and out? (I think not +_+)
Many thanks,
Nessie.

Part of your job will be serving to serve as a clearinghouse for operating manages’ recommendations for reductions, department by department, as they figure out how to get their break even point as low as possible without jeopardizing the business’s future In the general sense, a clearinghouse is structure or entity which collects, stores, and disseminates information, metadata, and materials. That seemed to fit the context of your sentence. However, the bold portion is somewhat of a mess in terms of meaning.

I am not sure where you got this passage. I still had trouble understanding and figuring out the real context and its intended meaning. Maybe it's me.
