About the Opportunity

Our client is looking for a Compensation Advisor to take ownership of the organization’s compensation function and partner closely with HR leadership and senior leaders across the business.

The organization has already completed significant foundational work around job architecture, career levels, pay structures, and incentive programs. This person will help refine those programs, bring them into day-to-day practice, and continue building a scalable compensation function across a complex, multi-location organization.

This is a hands-on role with broad visibility and the opportunity to have a meaningful impact on how compensation is structured and managed across the organization.

What You'll Own

• Compensation programs, policies, and practices
• Market pricing, benchmarking, and salary structures
• Job architecture, career levels, and job evaluations
• Annual compensation planning, merit, and bonus cycles
• Incentive program administration
• Pay equity and compensation analysis
• Compensation guidance for HR and business leaders
• Reporting and tools to support compensation decisions
• Manager and employee communications around compensation

What They're Looking For

• 5+ years of dedicated compensation experience
• Experience with salary structures, market pricing, job evaluations, and annual compensation cycles
• Strong Excel and analytical skills
• Experience working with HRIS/compensation data
• Ability to work independently and partner effectively with senior leaders
• Someone who enjoys both the analytical and practical sides of compensation

Experience in manufacturing, industrial, distribution, transportation, or another operationally complex environment would be a plus.

Why Consider It

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants ownership without walking into a blank slate. The organization has invested in the foundation and is looking for someone who can take it forward, improve the programs, and become a trusted compensation resource for leadership.
