What do you need to succeed? Must-have: Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Finance, Economics, Business, or related field. 3+ to 5+ years of progressive compensation design and governance experience, ideally in financial services, with demonstrated success managing programs from conception through implementation and optimization. Proven strategic thinking and business acumen: Experience leading or contributing to compensation strategy initiatives; identifying business problems and recommending solutions; managing competing priorities while maintaining alignment with organizational principles.

Demonstrated expertise in incentive plan design (short-term, long-term, or commission structures), including program governance, implementation, and performance evaluation. Proven ability to influence and partner effectively across functions (HR, Finance, Business Leadership) to drive alignment, resolve conflicts, and deliver results. Current knowledge of compensation trends, best practices, and emerging issues in financial services and broader industry (demonstrated through professional development, relevant certifications, or industry involvement). Understanding of financial principles and business metrics: Ability to analyze compensation costs, ROI, and human capital implications of decisions.
