  • Partner with People Business Partners, finance, and other stakeholders to provide guidance and recommendations on compensation-related matters, including job evaluations, salary structures, and pay equity.
  • Lead annual salary review processes, merit increase cycles, and bonus programs, ensuring fairness and consistency across the organization.
  • Manage relationships with external vendors, brokers, and consultants to optimize the effectiveness and cost-efficiency of our benefits programs.
  • Stay abreast of legislative and regulatory changes related to compensation and benefits, and ensure compliance with relevant laws and regulations.
  • Analyze employee data and metrics to assess the effectiveness of our total rewards programs and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
  • Provide guidance and support to managers and employees on compensation-related inquiries and issues.
  • Develop and deliver engaging and informative training sessions to educate employees and managers on our total rewards programs.

You have…

  • Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or related field.
  • Minimum of 8 years of progressive experience in compensation, benefits, or total rewards management, preferably in a fast-paced, start-up environment.
  • In-depth knowledge of compensation and benefits principles, practices, and trends, including familiarity with job evaluation methodologies, salary structures, incentive plans, and benefits design.
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret data, draw insights, and make data-driven recommendations.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and influence stakeholders at all levels of the organization.
  • Detail-oriented with a high degree of accuracy and integrity.
  • Proven project management skills, with the ability to prioritize and manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
  • Certified Compensation Professional (CCP) or Certified Benefits Professional (CBP) designation preferred.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
