auch eine andere

Law/Patents
German term or phrase: auch eine andere
This sentence is getting me into a bit of a twist:

Die Firma behaelt sich vor, (name) innerhalb des Unternehmens bei unveraenderten Bezuegen auch eine andere, seiner Vorbildung und Faehigkeiten entsprechendn Taetigkeit zu uebertragen.

So basically the company can move this guy around without making any changes to his salary 'so long as' these activities correspond to his skills, training and experience???

Obviously that is not legalese but I am just looking for confirmation that I have the right idea with the 'so long as'??

TIA
