📋 Description

• Lead the yearly assessment of compensation bands, benchmarking against market data (Radford/Pave) and providing insights to the business.

• Take ownership of the annual Radford compensation survey submission and analyze the resulting data.

• Manage compensation planning cycles from start to finish, encompassing bonus and merit cycles, utilizing Pave and/or Workday.

• Collaborate with Recruiting/PBPs to ensure consistent and competitive offer recommendations, acting as a compensation advisor throughout the candidate journey.

• Facilitate global expansion initiatives by creating competitive and compliant compensation frameworks across all operational jurisdictions.

• Work in tandem with the HRIS team to transfer compensation data from spreadsheets to Workday, enhancing data integrity and accessibility.

• In your initial 90 days, you will evaluate current compensation bands, assist with the Radford survey submission, and establish relationships with key stakeholders across PBPs, Finance, and Recruiting.

⛳️ Requirements

• Proven experience in compensation, total rewards, or a related HR function — preferably within a high-growth tech startup.

• Strong analytical abilities; adept at handling large data sets, constructing models in Excel/Sheets, and translating data into actionable recommendations.

• Familiarity with compensation survey data (Radford/Pave is highly preferred).

• Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills — capable of presenting to and influencing senior leadership.

• Experience with global compensation, including collaboration with or in an EOR (e.g., Remote, Deel), is a significant advantage.

• Knowledge of Pave and/or Workday is a strong plus.

• Prior experience in a tech startup is preferred — you thrive in environments characterized by ambiguity, rapid pace, and shifting priorities.
