  • You will collaborate across the organization—with regional People teams, hiring managers, and leaders—to ensure our rewards programs are aligned with business needs and local market requirements
  • Regularly monitor external trends and competitive landscapes to proactively adjust our rewards programs. You'll also establish key metrics to understand the effectiveness of our strategy and influence future program design
  • You'll develop and execute strategies to help every employee understand the value of all compensation and benefit programs globally, fostering a culture of trust and transparency

  • Deep analytical skills and can use complex data to influence decision-making at all levels
  • You believe that transparency empowers ownership and you aren’t afraid to dive into the details to help your team succeed
  • A global mindset and outstanding communication skills. You are a detail-oriented, self-starter who thrives in a dynamic setting, able to lead and execute multiple projects concurrently with little direction
